No, sound cannot travel in the vacuum of space, so explosions cannot be heard in space.
Sound waves cannot travel through space because space is a vacuum, meaning there is no medium (like air or water) for sound waves to travel through. Since the Sun is in space, the sound of an explosion produced by the Sun cannot be heard on Earth.
if the space is a total vacume then there is nothing to be peressurized to begin with but since there is an explosion there has to be some matter to cause it so in the breif moment when it does go off there should be pressure on theouter part of the confinde space and a vacume in the center of the explosion due to the fact that the matter is being exerted out ward
A nuclear explosion viewed from space appears as a bright flash of light followed by a rapidly expanding fireball. The explosion creates a mushroom-shaped cloud that rises into the atmosphere.
The two mistakes are that sound travels slower than light, so if you see and hear a distant explosion at the same time, the explosion actually happened some time earlier. Additionally, the speed of light is much faster than the speed of sound, so the light from the explosion will reach you much sooner than the sound.
The reason you feel the explosion in your feet before you hear it is due to the difference in the speed of sound through different mediums. The shockwave travels faster through solid material (like the ground) than through the air, so you sense the vibrations in the ground before you hear the sound through the air.
Light travels in vacuum but sound cannot. So, we can see solar flares but can't hear them. (Outer space can be considered to be vacuum)
I'm not sure which explosions you're referring to. But if an explosion were tooccur near a manned spacecraft, the people on board could not hear it.
1.that you see the explosion and hear it at the same time , while you should see first and here it later. 2.that sometimes there is smoke which immposible since there is no air.

Define what you mean by in space. If you mean outside the atmospheric level known as the mesosphere then the answer is kinda. You could, and should, attempt to expel the gasses within you while unprotected. You have about 9 seconds of conscious thought to do so. Then you pass out and maybe a minute and a half later you'll die. Being in any self-contained environment would also allow you to burp. So if you go into space in a suit, a ship, a sealed car or plane, or a giant hamster ball then burp away.
explosion in space
No, sound cannot travel in the vacuum of outer space because it requires a medium, such as air, to propagate. Explosions in space can still release energy in the form of light and radiation, but they would not produce any sound.
You FIRST see it, then you HEAR it. The time delay depends on your distance from the source of the explosion. The explanation, light travels faster than sound.
We cannot hear the explosion of the sun because sound requires a medium, like air or water, to travel through, and space is a vacuum devoid of such a medium. The intense energy released by solar explosions, like solar flares, produces electromagnetic waves, such as light and radio waves, which can travel through space, but not sound waves. Therefore, while we can observe the effects of solar activity through light and other electromagnetic signals, we cannot hear any associated sounds.
because, when there really is an explosion in space there isn't any sound so there shouldn't be any in space. :) (:
no sally ride did not die in the challenger explosion. but she did investigate on the explosion.
No, astronauts would not be able to hear an explosion on the moon because there is no atmosphere to transmit sound waves. Sound requires a medium like air to travel through, and since the moon is airless, there would be no way for sound to propagate and reach the astronauts' ears.
