Why does sound do not travel in a vacuum?

sound is the vibration of matter that your ears are able to pick up with the eardrums and send to the brain which interprets what the sound is. Out in space if a vibration is caused by something there is no air for it to push along thus the vibration is limited to the thing doing the vibrating. If you were to have your space helmet against the thing making the noise or rather vibrating out in space you would hear it.


How a neutral body can be charged negatively by induction?

You 'scrape off' electrons from another material by rubbing both surfaces along/against each other. Electrons 'jump' over by this mechanical forces. (Wool, nylon, against plasics)


How does your body gain electrons?

your body gains electrons all day.... you gain electrons by rubbing up against things and just walking... electrons carry over to your body and when you touch something metal or a conductor you will get shocked. :) i dont know if this is the right answer but i gave it a try


Why two bodies rubbed against each other acquire equal and opposite charges?

When the bodies are rubbed against each other one body transffers electrons to the other body. Since there are no new electrons produced or destroyed the charge is equal.


Does sound travel by vibration?

The short answer is yes. Sound is the vibration of molecules and is transmitted by the molecules bumping into each other unlike light which Is the movement of a photon through space. For this reason sound does not travel in a vacuum. The vibrating air molecules vibrate against a sensitive structure in the ear which the brain transforms into sounds.

When acetate is rubbed against your hair which loses and which gains electrons?

Acetate loses electrons, and the hair gains electrons. So acetate is negatively charged, meaning that the hair is positively charged.


Why does a plastic comb rubbed with a duster cause a thin stream of water to bend?

When you rub the comb against the duster it charges up the electrons,the electrons in the comb and the electrons in the water will repel

Why do zippers make noise?

The zipper makes noise because the edges of the opening rub against the row of the zipper teeth and it makes a vibration sound.
