Sound waves are carried throw the air. But sound waves can also travel throw liquids, such as water, and even through solids.

What is an example of energy being transferred by sound waves?
Anything that you can hear.
Do sound waves and electromagnetic radiation travel at the same speed?
Heaven's no! EM radiation travels at the speed of light: 299,792,458 m/s since it is carried by a massless particle called a photon. Sound waves are mechanical vibrations of molecules and aren't carried by photons. The speed of sound therefore varies drastically based on the material it is traveling through. In air, for example, it travels at 343 m/s, whereas in water, it travels at 1484 m/s.
Is collecting sound the same as captureing sound waves?
Sound waves are what make up sound (sound waves=sound) so I would suppose so.
What kind of wave are sound waves?
Sound waves are longitudinal waves; they travel from side to side, not up and down like transverse waves.
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.
How messages are carried by radio waves?
by the sound waves
How do sound waves move through a vacuum?
They can do this only indirectly by being carried over a radio signal.
What type of communication is carried by sound and light waves?
The type of communication that is carried by sound and light waves are messages. They can be sent via a video message.
What is carried by both sound waves and light waves?
Energy. Also, information.
How are waves carry?
Sound waves are carried throw the air. But sound waves can also travel throw liquids, such as water, and even through solids.
Are sounds carried by waves?
Sound waves (Vibrations) are carried by a medium (matter). This can be either a solid, liquid, gas, or plasma. *******Contributed by Czar Acumen***********************
How is sound carried through matter?
it travel though things, waves, sound,which is called a pictch
What is the the function of the outer ear?
The outer ear collects and funnels sound waves to the eardrum, where vibrations are carried into the middle ear.
Is talking to someone face to face Kinetic energy?
It could be said that there is; kinetic energy is carried by the air in which the sound travels.The energy is carried in the sound waves
Are sound waves longitudinal in solids?
No Sound waves are longitudinal. Being longitudinal they cannot be POLARISED.
Are sound waves in solar energy?
No, sound wave is translating wave of the matter. The solar energy is the wave carried by photon which is an energy (non-matter). There is no way a sound wave would be carried in the stream of photon.
How does you ear hear sound?
Sound is a mechanism that is carried out by a median which the air particles that carries the sound waves to our ear that we actually hear. There are different sizes of sound waves released by different frequencies and then carried at different speed by the air particles to our ear. Without a median, it is impossible to hear anything around you, like if we take "OUTER SPACE OR VACUUM" into consideration, there is existence of median or no movement of air particles that could carry the sound waves. So as a result what actually our ear detect is the sound waves brought to your ears by a median.
