Which travel faster a radio wave or sound wave?
A radio wave travels about 874,000 times as fast as a sound wave,plus it doesn't need any material to move through, as sound does.
Which bell do not produced sound wave the bell in the water or the bell in a vacuum?
the bell in a vacuum, in a vacuum there is nothing for the sound wave to move through
How does a sound wave move through a medium?
A sound wave moves through a medium by causing particles in the medium to vibrate back and forth in the same direction as the wave. This vibration creates a chain reaction, passing the energy of the wave from one particle to the next, allowing the sound wave to travel through the medium.
Do sound molecules move perpendicularly to the direction of wave propagation?
Sound molecules traveling through air is an example of a longitudinal wave. It moves parallel to the direction of wave propagation.
How do particles in a sound wave move?
The move by expansion and Contraction of the medium by which they are propagated. It is transmitted in air as a longitudinal wave- which means its direction is in line with the movement of the medium.
How does longitudinal sound move?
Longitudinal sound waves move by compressing and rarefying the medium they travel through in the same direction as the wave. As the sound wave propagates, it creates areas of high pressure (compression) and low pressure (rarefaction) that travel through the medium. This results in the perception of sound by our ears.
What are the features of sound wave?
A sound wave is a vibration of air that travels at approximately 767mph. The higher up these vibrations go (amplitude), the louder the sound is. The closer together these vibrations are (frequency), the higher pitch the sound will be.
What type of s mechanical wave is a sound wave?
A sound wave is a longitudinal mechanical wave, meaning the particles in the medium move parallel to the direction of the wave propagation. This distinguishes it from a transverse wave, where the particles move perpendicular to the wave propagation.
Why can't a sound wave be a transverse wave?
Sound is transmitted through gases, plasma, and liquids as longitudinal waves, also called compression waves. Through solids, however, it can be transmitted as both longitudinal waves and transverse waves. (Taken from wikipedia)
Do particles of air in a sound wave move up and down?
no, they move horizontally along the direction of the sound wave movement.
What kind of wave is sound wave?
Mechanical WaveLongitudinal WavePressure Wavesound wave is a longitudinal mechanical wave.answer: B. compression C. longitudinal D. mechanical
How does sound waves move through different mediums?
Sound waves move through different mediums by causing particles in the medium to vibrate back and forth in the direction of the wave. The particles pass on the energy of the vibration to neighboring particles, allowing the sound wave to travel through the medium. The speed of sound waves can vary depending on the properties of the medium, such as its density and elasticity.
