Sound waves need a medium to travel. As, there is only space and no medium between sun and earth therefore we can not hear the sounds of explosions produced on sun.

Why can you hear a sound that is produced out of sight around the corner of a building?
Because sound can reflect and refract causing the many sound waves used to produce the noise to hit other objects such as buildings and walls and even air particles so you can hear the noise when you cannot see where it is coming from.
What do you call a sound that you cannot hear?
Sound too low in frequency to hear (~<20Hz) is called infrasound. Sound too high infrequency to hear (~>20kHz) is called ultrasound.
What is an example a constant sound?
The fake sound you hear when you have tinnitus. Also, any device that is permanently on will produce a constant sound.
Is bats produce supersonic sound waves?
the bats do not produce supersonic sounds.they produce ultrasonic sounds.Thats the reason we cant hear them
Why does vibrating simple pendulum not produce any sound?
The lowest frequencies we can hear are about 20 Hz - 20 vibrations per second. If (for example) the pendulum moves back and forth once per second, it will produce sound at that frequency, which we are unable to hear. Also, the sound will be of a fairly low intensity.
Would astronauts be able to hear an explosion on the moon?
no, sound cannot travel to the vacuum of space
If there is an explosion some where but no one can hear it is there a sound?
In my opinon: Yes.For me sound is irrespective of listener.
How do you produce and hear a sound?
If you bang your fist on the table, there is a big 'thump'. This 'thump' is the noise you produced, and you can hear that 'thump'. Therefore, you can produce and hear a sound.
Explosion-do you see it first and then hear it?
You FIRST see it, then you HEAR it. The time delay depends on your distance from the source of the explosion. The explanation, light travels faster than sound.
If a satellite or spaceship explodes in outer space you can see the explosion from a distance but why can you not hear it?
Light travels in vacuum but sound cannot. So, we can see solar flares but can't hear them. (Outer space can be considered to be vacuum)
What would the sun sound like if you could hear it?
A big explosion that never stops.

Can you hear sound on dsitube?
No you cannot! DSi's web browser does not support sound!
Why can't we hear explosions?
If you can't hear explosions, you need a doctor. Perhaps we are too far away, or there is another noise which is masking the sound of the explosion.
Why we cannot speak in space and cannot hear?
We can't speak or hear in space because there is no air the sound can travel through.
What is the low frequency sound which you cannot hear called?
infrasound
