How does sound travel a material?

They pass from particle to particle by vibrating the particle. When the particle touches another particle, it transfers the sound energy to that particle. Hence the Sound Wave.

Is sound a particle or a wave?

Sound is a wave, not a particle. Sound waves are created by vibrations and travel through a medium, such as air or water, to carry sound from one place to another.

Is sound exhibits dual nature or not?

If you're talking about the "wave-particle duality", then no.


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.


What is a sound wave of a high pressure called?

A sound wave of high pressure is called a compression or a peak in the wave's amplitude. These high-pressure regions correspond to the portions of the wave where air particles are densely packed together.


The first particle to move in a sound wave will eventually bump into the receptor?

In a sound wave, particles in the medium vibrate and transfer energy by bumping into neighboring particles. The first particle to move in a sound wave does not reach the receptor; instead, it transfers its energy to adjacent particles, causing a chain reaction that ultimately reaches the receptor where it is converted into a sensation of sound.


How does energy propagate as a wave?

The details vary, depending on the type of wave. For example, in a sound wave, one particle bumps into the next, and transmits the kinetic energy.


Your perception of the amplitude of a sound wave is?

The amplitude of a sound wave is a measure of the distance between the rest position and the maximum displacement of the particle from its rest position. It is equal to half the total displacement of a vibrating particle.


How does the propagation of sound in a medium differ between a transverse wave and a longitudinal wave?

In a transverse wave, the particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction of the wave, while in a longitudinal wave, the particles move parallel to the direction of the wave. This difference in particle movement affects how sound propagates in the medium.
