Describe how sound waves are travel?
Sound waves are caused by vibrations and travel as longitudinal waves which cause by the vibration of the molecules in air (the molecules dont actually move)
Why dont sound waves travel through space?

Can sound travel in ways other than sound waves?
No
Energy that travels by waves?
Sound; light and other electromagnetic waves; gravitational waves.
What are some examples of longitudinal waves other than sound?
waves, and sound with the transverseness shut up
What is it called sound waves interact with each other?
the interaction between sound waves is called interference.
Which is not a type of electromagnetic wave?
Sound waves aren't an electromagnetic wave. So aren't seismic waves. So aren't waves in the ocean, in your hair, or waves bye-bye.
What is another word for sound wave?
Sound waves are vibrations that travel through a medium, such as air, to be received and perceived by the brain. Other words for sound waves include acoustic waves, longitudinal waves, compression waves, and transverse waves.
How does sound travel through sound waves?
Sound waves are the sound. The waves cause vibrations in the objects that they collide with, and then the vibrated objects create more waves with their vibrations. An example of this would be listening to someone on the other side of a door.
Can light waves diffract as any other waves?
Yes even sound waves diffract
