Will a concussive blast wave from an explosion actually travel through the vacuum of outer space?
No, it won't. That's because the concussive blast wave (and sound, too, for that matter) requires a medium to travel through. That medium must conduct (carry or transfer) the energy of the wave. No mechanical medium equals no mechanical wave. However, if there are components of the blast that involve light or other kinds of electromagnetic radiation, those components will travel through the vacuum of space. They will not have the concussive impact that earth-bound waves will have.

Can an explosion be heard on the surface of the moon?
Sound can travel in the solid rocks of the moon but sound can not travel on the surface of the moon because there is no air for the sound to travel in.
Would astronauts be able to hear an explosion on the moon?
No, astronauts would not be able to hear an explosion on the moon because there is no atmosphere to transmit sound waves. Sound requires a medium like air to travel through, and since the moon is airless, there would be no way for sound to propagate and reach the astronauts' ears.
Why we can not hear the explosion of sun?
We cannot hear the explosion of the sun because sound requires a medium, like air or water, to travel through, and space is a vacuum devoid of such a medium. The intense energy released by solar explosions, like solar flares, produces electromagnetic waves, such as light and radio waves, which can travel through space, but not sound waves. Therefore, while we can observe the effects of solar activity through light and other electromagnetic signals, we cannot hear any associated sounds.
Solar wind a violent explosion that may appear as a loop or an arc?
Solar wind is a continuous stream of charged particles released from the upper atmosphere of the sun. It is not a violent explosion but rather a constant flow of particles that travel through the solar system. Solar wind can cause phenomena like auroras when interacting with Earth's magnetic field.
Which is true heat can travel well through all materials or heat can travel well through some materials?
Some, but not all. Some materials are insulators- heat does not travel well through them.
Why can supernove explosion in space can be seen but not heard?
because sound waves cannot travel through space
How far can projectiles travel from a 1-pound explosion?
If the projectiles are small enough, they can travel around the world from a 1-pound explosion.
Do ships travel through Bermuda triangle?
Yes, actually they do and they will be lucky to make it through!
Can an explosion be heard on the surface of the moon?
Sound can travel in the solid rocks of the moon but sound can not travel on the surface of the moon because there is no air for the sound to travel in.
If an atomic bomb were detonated on the surface of the Moon how long would it be until the explosion is heard on Earth?
The explosion would never be heard on Earth. Sound cannot travel through the near-vacuum of space.
Does an explosion sound louder with an overcast sky?
No, an explosion's sound is not significantly affected by the presence of an overcast sky. Sound waves travel through the air in the same way regardless of cloud cover. The perceived loudness of an explosion is more dependent on factors such as distance, intensity of the explosion, and surrounding environmental conditions.
How far can fragments travel from a 1 lb explosion?
they travel how far they want to
Can sound travel through the universe?
sound most likely can't travel through the universe if it does have an atmosphere,but it actually can travel around in other parts and other spaces around the universe>>>>>!
What is the maximum speed at which grenade shrapnel can travel upon explosion?
The maximum speed at which grenade shrapnel can travel upon explosion is typically around 1,600 meters per second.
Does the sound travel through a soild?
Yes, sound actually travels faster through solids then liquids or gases.
Why you cannot hear the sound of explosion produce in the sun?
Sound waves cannot travel through space because space is a vacuum, meaning there is no medium (like air or water) for sound waves to travel through. Since the Sun is in space, the sound of an explosion produced by the Sun cannot be heard on Earth.
