No air for sound to travel through

It helps to know what sound is all about. It is a wave, where, roughly speaking, energy is transferred from one molecule to the next; one molecule bumps into the next. Obviously this requires molecules to work.

How fast is the speed of sound in a vacuum?

The speed of sound cannot be measured in a vacuum because there is no medium for sound waves to travel through in a vacuum. Sound requires a medium such as air, water, or solids to propagate.

The velocity of sound in vacuum is?

The velocity of sound in vacuum is 0 m/s because sound requires a medium, such as air or water, to travel through. In the absence of a medium, sound waves cannot propagate and therefore, there is no velocity of sound in vacuum.


What experiment shows the notion of sound in a vacuum?

Sound needs gases to travel through, therefore it does not exist in a vacuum. In other words to my knowledge there is no experiments where sound is created in a vacuum.
