What must happen in order for a sound to be heard?
Something has to vibrate, and the sound waves have to travel to your ears.
What must sound have in order to travel?
An atmosphere. Sound cannot travel in a vacuum.
Why can't sound travel forever?
Sound must travel through a medium, and as sound travels it loses energy
What is a example of a wave encountering a new medium?
Dive underwater in a pool while a radio is playing near the pool. While you are underwater, the sound of the radio will be different because the sound waves which are traveling in air at first, encounter water, and must travel through water to reach your ears. So it goes from the medium of air to the medium of water.

Can sounds travel in a vacuum?
No, sound requires a medium to travel.No it must travel through matter
How does air tempurature affect the speed of sound?
Sound waves travel through particle vibration, and when the temperature is high, the particles vibrate faster, thus the sound must travel faster with particles.
Why must there be a medium for sound to exist?
Sound is a mechanical wave, and mechanical waves need something to travel through.
