What must happen in order for a sound wave to form?

In order for a sound wave to form, a vibrating object must disturb the particles in a medium (such as air, water, or solids), causing them to vibrate. These vibrating particles then create a series of compressions and rarefactions that propagate through the medium as a sound wave.


What has to happen for a sound wave to happen?

For a sound wave to be created there has to be a vibration


What would happen to a sound wave if the energy increased?

It becomes louder. The amplitude of the sound wave increases


What would happen with the sound If a wave length increase?

If the wavelength of a sound wave increases, the frequency of the wave decreases. This means that the pitch of the sound would decrease. Essentially, the sound wave becomes stretched out, resulting in a lower pitched sound.


What cause a wave to form?

When matter vibrates it sends out a sound wave.


What must happen in order for an electromagnetic wave to form?

An electromagnetic wave is formed when an oscillating electric field creates an oscillating magnetic field, and vice versa. When these two fields interact and propagate through space, they form an electromagnetic wave.


What are the sound wave forms?

The main sound wave forms are sine waves, square waves, sawtooth waves, and triangle waves. Each wave form has its own unique sound characteristics and is used in different ways in sound synthesis and music production.


Is a sound wave a transverse wave or longitudinal wave?

Sound waves are longitudinal.


What causes a sound to form?

When matter vibrates it sends out a sound wave.


Why is the vibration of an object necessary for a sound wave to form?

"Sound waves" are basically pressure waves - areas of higher and lower pressure, that propagate as a wave. You must have SOME means to create those pressure changes, and to do so quickly.


What can happen if a sound wave hits a barrier?

When a sound wave hits a barrier, several things can happen: it can be absorbed by the barrier, reflected back, transmitted through the barrier (if it's not solid), or diffracted around the barrier. The actual outcome depends on the properties of both the barrier and the sound wave.


What causes a sound wave to form?

A sound wave is created when an object vibrates, causing air molecules to vibrate and transfer energy in the form of a wave. The vibrating object pushes and pulls on the surrounding air molecules, creating compressions and rarefactions that travel through the air as sound.
