No, no. Without air, you hear nothing, although

without air, that is seldom your main concern.

What happens to air as sound travels through air?

Sound is transmitted from a source to the surrounding air particles, which vibrate or collide and pass the sound energy along to our ears. Without any particles to vibrate we wouldn't hear the sound.


Can there be sound without anyone to hear it?

Sound is a vibration (wave) transmitted through the atmosphere. It does not need to be perceived by an ear to exist. Without air--as in space--no one can hear you scream. That's catchy! Subsonic vibrations, such as an earthquake, can be felt by the body, but if you hear it, then the vibration is being transfered through the air.


Why is the moon a quiet place?

There is no atmosphere (air) on the Moon, sound comes to our ears though the air and this without any air you could not hear anything.


Why don't you feel a push of air when you hear the sound?

When we hear sound we do not feel the pushing the air becasue the sound waves are in form of comprestional waves.


Without atmosphere would there be sound?

Sound requires a medium, such as air or water, to travel. Without an atmosphere, such as in outer space, there would be no molecules to transmit sound waves, so we would not hear sound in the traditional sense.


Why can't a sound wave travel from a satellite to earth?

A sound wave cannot travel through space because there is no air in space. Without a medium such as air, you can't hear sounds


Why couldn't you hear a radio in a room without any air in it?

You couldn't hear a radio in a room without any air because sound requires a medium, like air, to travel through. In a vacuum, there are no particles to transmit sound waves, so any audio produced by the radio would not propagate. Consequently, even though the radio may be functioning, the absence of air means you wouldn't be able to hear anything.


Why is it impossible to hear sound in space?

sound is created by through creating compression and decompression zones in the air and air particles. there is no air in space, therefore we can not make compression and decompression zones, thus stating that there is no sound in space as it can not be created without air. good enough answer? :)


Can you make sounds without air?

Yes you can make sound without air, because sound can travel through all the forms of matter, gases, liquid, solid, and plasma. If you submerged yourself underwater, you'd still be able to hear sound.


What does most of the sound you hear travel through?

Most of the sound you hear travels through air. Sound waves are vibrations that travel through the air and reach your ears, where they are processed by your brain as sound.


How does you ear hear sound?

Sound is a mechanism that is carried out by a median which the air particles that carries the sound waves to our ear that we actually hear. There are different sizes of sound waves released by different frequencies and then carried at different speed by the air particles to our ear. Without a median, it is impossible to hear anything around you, like if we take "OUTER SPACE OR VACUUM" into consideration, there is existence of median or no movement of air particles that could carry the sound waves. So as a result what actually our ear detect is the sound waves brought to your ears by a median.


Where is sound produced?

sound can be produced in any medium - air, water and solids too, but most of the sounds we hear are through air. Animals like dolphins produce sound in water and hear it there.
