What else can I help you with?
Does sound energy that passes through a solid considered reflected?
depends on what type of solid depends on what type of solid
Is sound energy that passes through a solid said to be absorbed?
If it passes through (i.e. you can hear it on the other side of the solid) then it hasn't been absorbed, but merely transferred from the source to the solid and back into the air. If the sound cannot be heard from the other side of the solid (i.e. it does not pass through) then it is said to have been absorbed.
What happens to the speed of a sound wave as it passes from the air into the ground?
The speed of a sound wave increases when it passes from air into the ground. This is because sound waves travel faster in solids than in gases, due to the higher density and rigidity of the solid material.
What passes through a medium?
Waves, such as sound or light, can pass through a medium. The medium can be solid, liquid, or gas, and the particles in the medium vibrate or oscillate as the wave passes through. Energy and information can also pass through a medium in the form of waves.
Sound energy that passes through a solid is said to be reflected?
Sound energy that pass through a solid is said to be reflected because as sound waves pass from air to a solid, some of the energy is reflected back into the air. Some of the energy will be absorbed by the new medium.
What happens when a sound source passes by you?
it's frequency increases
What transmits a sound through solid?
Sound waves transmit sound through a solid, as well as air and water. Sound waves cannot be transmitted through a vacuum.
Why sound does not pass through the glass?
There is no "why". Sound passes through glass quite easily.
How is sound refracted?
Sound is a wave (of energy) in a medium [solid,liquid, or gas] (a compression wave in fact), therefore it is refracted by any change in the medium AND by the fact that it is never coherent (it never travels in only a straight line).
How does sound travel through solid objects?
Sound travels through solid objects via vibrations. When an object is struck or a sound is produced, it causes the particles in the solid to vibrate, transmitting the sound energy as a wave through the material. The speed of sound in a solid is determined by the material's density and elasticity.
Can sound travel through bricks?
Yes, sound can travel through bricks, but it will be significantly muffled due to the density and composition of the material. The sound will lose energy as it passes through the brick, making it difficult to hear on the other side.
Why can sound energy not travel travel through a vacuum?
Sound requires a medium, such as air, water, or a solid, to travel through. In a vacuum, there is no medium for the sound waves to travel through, so the energy cannot propagate. This is why sound energy cannot travel through a vacuum.
