All "waves" are energy. In this case, music is a tremendously complex series of waves caused by air compression of differing frequencies, phase, and amplitude. But they are still waves, caused by movement of the air - basic physics tells you that moving air has force (however small) and therefore energy.

∙ 15y agoSound is a compression wave travelling through the air. When you hear a sound it is because it is making your eardrum vibrate, your eardrum is absorbing energy from the sound wave. Too loud a sound can damage the eardrum. Another approach is to think of the generation of the sound, which in a loudspeaker is done by making the cone inside it vibrate. I'm sure you must have heard of speakers being given a power rating, 5 watts, 10 watts, etc. This is the power being put into the speaker to produce the sound

What energy transfers take place in a speaker?
In an electric fan electric energy is converted into mechanical energy which makes the blades of the fan spin. On the other hand in a loudspeaker electric energy is converted into sound energy which produces the music.
Sound energy as a carrier of energy?
Yes. Sound energy is a carrier of energy.
What is Vibration of molecules energy called?
Gravitational Energy.
How are loudness and and intensity related to the amplitude and energy of a sound wave?
The word loudness belongs to psycho acoustics and tells how we feel this sound, that is not measuring the sound like we do with a sound pressure meter. Listening to music means motion to the ear drums. Only sound pressure moves the ear drums. The energy or the sound intensity is much less important here. Sound intensity belongs more to the noise fighters.
When might kinetic energy turn into sound energy?
When you drop a rock and it hits the side walk it makes a sound. Kinetic energy transferred to sound energy.
What do you call music energy?
Sound waves. Music itself is not an energy.
How is sound energy carried?
Sound energy is carried from the music thingy to our ears
Is music potential energy?
If you are refering to the 'sound' that music produces, that's kinetic energy of the sound waves travelling though air.
What is a common use of sound energy?
Music.
How is energy carried?
Sound energy is carried from the music thingy to our ears
What are 2 examples of sound energy?
microphone,music
Trace the energy transformations from a radio signal to music you hear?
Electrical to sound.
What is the energy changes in a battery-operated music player playing a song?
Chemical energy to sound +light energy
Are there any uses for sound energy?
Yes, the normal talking and music uses sound energy. One can easily understand by taking up the example of Sonar, Sound navigation and ranging which uses sound propagation to navigate.
What are the example of sound energy?
Hearing, music, telephones, and vacuums are examples of sound energy.
What energy transfers take place in a speaker?
In an electric fan electric energy is converted into mechanical energy which makes the blades of the fan spin. On the other hand in a loudspeaker electric energy is converted into sound energy which produces the music.
What are ways we use sound energy?
We can use sound energ for many things but the main two reasons are: -Communication - we use sound energy to communicate with other living organisms as this is our soul main use of sound -Pleasure - for example music
