Sound waves travel through vibrations. If one particle starts vibrating it will pass on that movement to other particles that are close by. This means that sound travels quickly through solids as the particles are closely packed and readily pick up movement from their neighbours; it travels less quickly through liquids as the particles are close enough to pick up vibrations but not tightly packed like they are in solids; sound travels slowest through gases (weird, but true - even though we rely on gases to pass on the sounds we make in speech) because their particles are much further apart.
If there are no particles - like in a vacuum such as you'd find in space - then sound can't travel at all!
Sound waves need a medium, however, ocean waves are simply water traveling in an undulating pattern. On Earth, ocean waves are caused by the tidal patterns created from the sun & moon's gravitational pull on the Earth. Sound waves are audible energy that bounces off of particles, making it medium-dependent.
Sound travels through matter of any state, solid, liquid, gas or plasma, as long as the matter's molecules are close enough to interact with each other. The denser the matter, the easier and faster sound travels through it. Sound cannot travel through a vacuum or near-vacuum, like space, but it can be converted into variations in an electo-magnetic carrier wave, which can be transmitted through space then converted back to sound.
It can travel through a solid, liquid, gas, and plasma

sound waves cant travel through space because there is no oxygen, and if there is no oxygen there is nothing to carry the sound waves. youre welcom theSas
it is produced by the string vibrating on the instrument when you strum it.
Most likely gravity believe it or not, the sound waves travel differently :)
Guitar sound waves may vary. They travel way back to when you were born.
Speakes and sound waves.

dense media
Sound waves travel faster through denser media, like solids, because the molecules are closer together, making it easier to pass the sound from molecule to molecule. Light and other electromagnetic waves travel faster through less dense media, and they travel fastest through a vacuum.
In the same longitudinal form
Yes, sound waves can travel through clouds.
Waves can travel through many media, depending on their nature. Sound waves can go through solids, liquids and gases. Transverse shock waves can only travel through solids. Electromagnetic waves can go through some solids, liquids or gases, or through a vacuum.
Sound waves travel through matter, whether solid, liquid, or gas. They do not travel through vacuum.
Sound waves cannot travel through vaccum.
Light waves travel at approx 300,000 kilometres per second, sound at approx 0.343 kilometres/second.Light waves can travel in vacuum or through some media (there is no such word as mediums!). Sound waves cannot travel through vacuum: they needs a physical medium.
Sound waves will travel through gases, liquids, and solids. Sound waves cannot pass through a vacuum.
Sound waves require a medium to travel through, and, since space is a vacuum, sound waves can't travel in it.
Radio waves travel through empty space because they are electromagnetic waves, whereas sound is a wave that must travel through air.
