You worded that completely wrong. But if you're asking where are sound waves not transmitted or resonated it would be in space because it's a vacuum and there is no air for the sound to vibrate hence, no sound.

Which type of seismic wave cannot travel through the core?
S-Waves, or shear waves cannot travel through the liquid outer core because liquids have no shear and therefore shear waves cannot propagate through them http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-wave
Do p waves travel through the crust mantle outer and inner core?
Yes, however s waves can't; they can only travel through solids, therefore they cannot travel through the outer core, which is liquid.
What happens when s waves hit the outer core of earth?
Because the Earth's core is liquid; S-waves can't travel through liquid.
What is one way that scientists know the outer core is liquid?
some kinds of seismic waves cannot travel through liquids, such as the outer core.
What happens to seismic waves when they pass through the liquid outer core?
There are two types of waves. There are S waves (sheer waves) and P waves (compressional waves). The S waves won't travel through the outer core because it's a liquid, but the P waves will go through it and continue going through the inner core as well.
Why can't s waves travel through earth?
S waves cannot travel through liquid. The Earth's core is liquid.
Which type of seismic wave cannot travel through the core?
S-Waves, or shear waves cannot travel through the liquid outer core because liquids have no shear and therefore shear waves cannot propagate through them http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-wave
Why can't S-wave travel through earth's core?
S waves cannot travel through liquid. The Earth's core is liquid.
Do S waves travel through earth's inner core?
While S waves (shear waves) can travel through earth's solid inner core, they cannot travel through earth's liquid outer core, which surrounds the inner core.So, unless the S waves originated inside the inner core (which seems unlikely) there are no S waves traveling through earth's inner core.
Do p waves travel through the crust mantle outer and inner core?
Yes, however s waves can't; they can only travel through solids, therefore they cannot travel through the outer core, which is liquid.
What earth layer are s waves not transmitted?
S waves can not travel through liquids, the outer core is a liquid, so the S waves can not travel through the outer core. You can also determine that since the outer core is all around the inner core, that the S waves can no travel through the inner core as well.
What happens when s waves hit the outer core of earth?
Because the Earth's core is liquid; S-waves can't travel through liquid.
What body wave can't move through the liquid outer core?
S waves cannot travel through the outer core because they can only travel through solids, and the outer core is liquid.
The shadow zone is caused by of waves as they travel through Earth.?
The shadow zone is caused by S-waves as they travel through Earth. S-waves, however, cannot travel through the outer core of the Earth, which is molten. This is because S-waves lose velocity when travelling through a liquid.
What is one way that scientist the outer core is liquid?
some kinds of seismic waves cannot travel through liquids, such as the outer core.
What is one way that scientists know the outer core is liquid?
