Guitar sound waves may vary. They travel way back to when you were born.

How do sound waves travel though the air?

far away


Why do light waves have a far shorter wavelength than sound waves?

sound waves travel faster slower than light waves In air, sound travels around 300m/s.


How far can sound travel in space between astonauts?

Sound waves require a medium to travel through to propagate from point A to point B. In space there is no such medium, so sound does not travel in space.


What characteristic of sound determines how far it can travel before dying out?

The characteristic of sound that determines how far it can travel before dying out is its intensity or amplitude. Sound waves with higher intensity can travel further before their energy is dissipated and they become too weak to be detected.


How does the energy of sound waves affect the propagation of sound through different mediums?

The energy of sound waves influences how sound travels through different materials. Higher energy sound waves can travel faster and more efficiently through mediums like solids compared to gases or liquids. The energy of sound waves also determines how far they can travel and how clearly they can be heard.


How many ways does sound travel?

Sound can travel through air, liquids like water, and solids like walls and floors. Sound waves can also travel through gases, such as carbon dioxide and helium. In a vacuum, however, such as outer space, sound cannot travel because there are no molecules to carry the sound waves.


Which travels faster-radio waves or sound waves?

Radio wave travel faster than sound wave. Radio wave is the same as light wave except at different wavelength. It travel at speed of light (3 x 108 m/s). Sound wave travel at only 330 m/s and probably can go up to 3,300 m/s in solid medium which is far slower than the speed of light.


How loud is 120 decibels and how far can those sound waves travel?

120 decibels is extremely loud, equivalent to a rock concert or a chainsaw. Sound waves at this level can travel a fair distance, potentially up to a few miles depending on the surrounding environment and obstacles.


Why can sound only travel a certain distance on the earth?

Sound can only travel a certain distance on Earth due to factors like air temperature, pressure, and humidity, which affect the speed and intensity of sound waves. Additionally, obstacles such as buildings, mountains, and bodies of water can absorb or reflect sound waves, limiting how far they can travel.


How do you know that electomagnetic waves can travel through a vacuum?

Electromagnetic waves travel as streams of particles, thus being able to move through a vacuum. For example, light reaches the earth from the sun and other far away stars. You can compare this with sound waves which requires a medium such as air or water to travel through.


What differentiates light waves from sound waves?

There are a great number of properties and characteristics that contrast and distinguish each of those from the other. Perhaps the closer one investigates them, the more differences are uncovered. As far as we ... ordinary people, relying on our senses ... are concerned, the over-riding distinction, which allows us to identify them instantly and positively, is the conjugate pair of facts that you can't see sound, and you can't hear light.


Do sound waves travel best through air?

Surprisingly no. Air is a gas which means that the molecules are far apart. Even a liquid is better that air for sound to travel through because the molecules are closer together. But, a solid is the best for a sound to travel through. This is because the molecules are very close together so the vibration is transferred much quicker though the material.
