What else can I help you with?
Sound travels as a what?
Sound travels as a wave through a medium, such as air, water, or solids. The vibrations of particles in the medium create pressure changes that propagate as sound waves.
What is sound wave format?
The sound wave only travels in a medium, where the wave is in Longitudinal format.
Sound travels in what kind of wave?
Sound travels in longitudinal waves, which means that the particles of the medium move in the same direction as the wave is propagating. This is in contrast to transverse waves where the particles move perpendicular to the wave's direction.
Is there sound that travels in currents?
No, sound is a wave not a current.
In what type of wave is sound traveling in water?
Sound travels in water as a longitudinal wave.
What happens to the air particles as the sound wave travels through them?
As the sound wave travels through the air, the air particles vibrate back and forth in the direction of the wave, transferring the sound energy.
When sound travels is transferred by the sound wave?
It is called frequency
What sound wave travels fastest?
solids
Which type of wave a sound wave is?
A sound wave is logitudinal because the motion of the medium (air) travels in the same direction as the wave (back and forth).
What is the motion of the air molecules that carry sound?
They rapidly compress and rarefy in the direction of the sound wave as the wave travels.
Does sound travel?
Yes, sound is a wave and it travels when there is a medium for it to travel through.
How is it possible for a sound wave to transmit energy but not matter?
Sound wave's transmit energy and not matter because sound travels from particle to particle transferring only energy. That is why when sound travels only the energy travels and the particles just collide with each other but stay in their positions.
