What type of matter is most efficient at transmitting sound waves?
liquid
Which of the following is not capable of transmitting sound. air steel water a vacuum?
A Vacuum cannot transmit sound. A vacuum is by definition, void of any matter. Since sound is transmitted by passing vibrations in matter, without matter it can't carry any sound.
Does the water is not capable of transmitting sound?
Water is capable of transmitting sound energy
Is the sound considered as a matter?
Is sound considered as matter? No, matter is composed of atoms and particles, and sound is a perceptible motion (vibration) of material things.
What happens when sound travels through material?
it is depending upon the material. generally the material have meet some nano vibrations in it. and the frequency of the sound get distorted
Which is the best material that can muffle sound?
It come's from tree's but the type of material is Wood.
Why sound need medium while it propagation?
Because sound waves are mechanical vibrations of material matter. You can't have sound waves in a space where there's no material to vibrate.
The state of matter that is generally the poorest transmitter of sound?
liquid
Matter which a wave travle?
Matter through which a wave travels is named as material medium. Example air is a material medium needed for sound waves to pass through
What energy does a telephone produce?
sound energy, since it's transmitting sound waves.
Are sound waves mechanical in nature?
Yes: they are compression-waves in the medium transmitting the sound.
Can sound travel through other kinds of material than air if so does it travel differently?
Sound can travel through all matter. The speed at which it travels depends on the density of the material.
