When you scream into a pillow, the sound waves produced by your voice are absorbed by the pillow's material, which dampens their intensity. The soft fibers and structure of the pillow disperse and trap the sound waves, reducing their reflection and transmission. As a result, the sound is muffled, and less sound energy escapes into the surrounding environment, making it quieter.
What else can I help you with?
What happens to energy in sound waves when a sound in the room fades out?
The vibrations in the air (sound) get absorbed by the walls.
What happens to the sound waves when it enter into vacuum?
Sound waves cannot propagate in a vacuum. Sound waves travel through matter, and a vacuum is, by definition, the absence of matter.
Sound waves cannot travel in outer space True or false?
no trust me there isn't don't make me go in to explaning it
Can you convert sound waves to light waves or viseversa?
Yes, this happens all the time with communications. As radio and microwaves from mobile phones and radios are a form of the EM spectrum, which are converted into sound waves in the form of a person speaking or a song playing.
What kind of wave are sound waves?
Sound waves are longitudinal waves; they travel from side to side, not up and down like transverse waves.
You get mad and you scream into a pillow which interaction sound takes place and how does the sound move?
When you scream into a pillow, the sound waves are muffled and absorbed by the fabric of the pillow, reducing the overall volume. The interaction is a combination of sound absorption and reflection, as some sound may still escape the pillow and be heard in the surrounding environment, albeit at a lower intensity.
How does an echo work?
An echo happens when sound waves bounce off an object. That's why if you scream into a hollow cave, there is an echo. Because the sound waves bounce off the walls and back at you
Can you scream under water?
Yes, but the water usually absorbs the sound waves.
Do you think you could hear your scream in space yes or no?
sound waves cannot travel through space
What happens when sound waves hit a soft surface?
Part of the energy of a sound wave is absorbed when it comes in contact with a surface, and the rest of that energy is reflected. A soft surface (such as carpet) will absorb much more of the sound than a hard surface (concrete), but the hard surface would still absorb some amount of energy.
What happens when transverse electromagnetic waves encounter cavity?
light waves or electromagnetic waves are transverse and sound waves are longitudinal
What happens to sound waves as they move away from the source of the sound?
They get distant and more quieter
What happens to energy in sound waves when a sound in the room fades out?
The vibrations in the air (sound) get absorbed by the walls.
What happens as a waves energy decreases?
The sound gets softer.
What happens to seismic waves in the air?
In air, the seismic waves(P-wave) are simply sound waves, and travel with the speed of sound (approx. 335 m/s).
What happens to the sound waves when it enter into vacuum?
Sound waves cannot propagate in a vacuum. Sound waves travel through matter, and a vacuum is, by definition, the absence of matter.
Can sound wave diffract?
No. Diffraction is not a wave; it is something that HAPPENS to waves; to all sorts of waves.
