What else can I help you with?
Sound waves cannot travel on the?
Sound waves cannot travel through vaccum.
Explain why cant sound travel through vacuums?
there is no air in a vaccum. and sound needs air for the sound waves to travel through.
What does sound need to travel through?
Sound (and vibration) are a wave system of sequential compressions and rarefactions of a material. These waves are mechanical and do need a substance through which to travel. They cannot travel through a vacuum.
What are the objects called that allow sound to travel through them?
Sound is a pressure wave. Objects that "allow" sound to travel through them could be called wave guides.
What types of materials can sound not travel through?
Spongy materials are the most difficult for sound to travel through. Vacuum is the best acoustic insulation but it doesn't really count for the purpose of this question, since it is not a material but a lack of material.
What angle does sound travel from the point of creation of the sound?
Sound travels in all directions from the point of its creation, spreading out in a spherical pattern. It does not travel in a single angle but rather in a 360-degree pattern.
How are sound waves longitudinal?
Yes sound waves are longitudinal, rather than transverse, the oscillate parallel to the direction of travel
Why do sound waves travel in spheres rather than in circles much like a ripple in a pond?
Because they are unconstrained. That is, the ripples on the water surface are constrained to be on the surface of the water by their very nature: that is, a ripple is by definition a disturbance on the surface of the water. Since the surface of the water is flat, then the ripples cannot be spherical and they must instead assume the 2D intersection of the sphere which is commonly known as a "circle. " In fact, "sound" waves can travel through water and these are distinct from ripples. Like their airborne counterparts, subsurface sound waves also propagate spherically -- they travel in 3 dimensions because they can and they are not constrained by anything to propagate in merely 2 D.
What is needed for sound to travel?
Sound requires a medium to travel
Why cant sound travel on the moon?
Sound can travel on the moon because there is no atmosphere. Space is a vacuum that does not allow sound to travel.
What do Sound wave not travel?
Sound wave do not travel through vaccum as it need medium to travel.
Where does sound not propagate?
sound needs a material medium to travel. Sound can travel by compression and rarefactions.attma
Does sound travel?
Yes, sound is a wave and it travels when there is a medium for it to travel through.
What must sound have in order to travel?
An atmosphere. Sound cannot travel in a vacuum.
What can sound waves not travel in?
sound waves can't travel in a vacuum (space)
What a 4 different things that sound can travel though?
Sound can travel through:airwaterrocksoil
How do sound waves travel to a satellite?
Sound waves require a medium to travel through, and, since space is a vacuum, sound waves can't travel in it.
