Will sound travel faster in solid liquid or gas?
Sound is a compression wave that travels via then vibrations of particles. If the particles are closer together then the wave (sound) moves faster. Particles are closer together in a liquid than a gas, therefore sound travels faster through liquids.
How does the frequency of a sound wave affect the speed at which the sound wave moves?
Frequency and speed of propagation of the wave are independent of one another. The medium determines the speed of propagation.
The speed of a sound wave depends on properties of the medium occurs when a sound wave moves from one medium into another in which its speed is different?
refrction
What does sound wave move fastest in?
water Dense solid objects
A sound wave moves from a medium where particles of matter are closely packed to a medium where particles of matter are further apart How do you expect the sound wave to travel differently?
The wave will move faster, increasing its speed.
What has to happen for a sound wave to happen?
For a sound wave to be created there has to be a vibration
What will most likely happen if a light wave moves through a solid?
The light will either be absorbed, or it will pass through.
Will sound travel faster in solid liquid or gas?
Sound is a compression wave that travels via then vibrations of particles. If the particles are closer together then the wave (sound) moves faster. Particles are closer together in a liquid than a gas, therefore sound travels faster through liquids.
What type of wave moves the fastest?
Light wave travels fastest in air Sound wave travels fastest in solid or liquid
How do sound moves?
Sound is vibration transmitted through a solid, liquid, or gas. To see sound waves as longitudinal waves in air moving, scroll down to related links and look at "Longitudinal wave - Wikipedia".
What happen to sound in terms of frequency as an object moves away from you?
The frequency, as observed by the receiving end, will be less than the frequency at which the wave was emitted.
What must happen for a sound wave to form?
sound
How fast does a sound wave travel through a solid?
The speed of sound through a solid depends upon the density of that solid. The denser the solid, the quicker sound travels.
The material in witch a sound wave moves is called a?
"medium"
How many mediums can a sound wave pass through?
Solid, Liquid and Gas... These are the three things a sound wave can get trough... A sound-wave can get trough solid easily, because of all the particles, after that trough Liquid and at least trough Gas...
What would happen to a sound wave if the energy increased?
It becomes louder. The amplitude of the sound wave increases
How does the frequency of a sound wave affect the speed at which the sound wave moves?
Frequency and speed of propagation of the wave are independent of one another. The medium determines the speed of propagation.
