Why cant sound waves travel through a vaccuum?
No medium to carry the sound energy.
What do mechanical waves carry?
Mostly energy, but they also carry a small amount of momentum and, in some cases, angular momentum.
Do sound waves carry electrical and magnetic energy?
No. Electromagnetic waves do.
How does sound get from its source to you?
Waves carry sound energy from the bell to the ear.
What contains sound energy?
As you may know, the sound energy is basically a wave or many waves traveling through the air( or anything that is not a void ) and those waves carry energy not matter. the sound waves or sound energy is a part of kinetic energy because the energy is not waiting to be unleashed, in fact it's moving within the air or any other material
Why cant sound waves travel through foam?
Because sound waves carry energy particles called clots and clots are too large to pass through the low density material as foam
Do waves carry energy through matter as mechancial waves?
I suppose you mean whether mechanical waves carry energy? The answer is yes.
Say true or false. all waves are traveling disturbances that carry energy from place to place?
It is true. A wave is a disturbance through space or time that carrys energy. For example, lets say sound waves. A sound wave carrys the energy (sound) to you.
What kind of waves use matter to carry energy?
Sound.
Do light waves carry electrical and magnetic energy and does sound?
no
How does energy move through waves?
Basically it's the waves themselves that carry the energy.
What are waves of energy that travel through earth?
Sound waves
