Yes, how much gets through depends on the material, thickness of walls and objects inside, and the frequency of the sound.

The sound will 'attenuate' or decrease in intensity as it travels. That is because the sound changes the form of energy that it is in to heat, motion, etc.

Low frequencies will travel much farther than higher frequencies.

Where do sound waves travel through?

Sound waves travel through a medium, such as air, water, or solids. In air, sound waves create vibrations that travel through molecules in the form of pressure waves. These waves carry the sound energy and allow the sound to be heard by our ears.


Through what are things can sound waves travel?

Sound waves can travel through solids, liquids, and gases.


Through what can sound waves travel?

Sound waves can travel through mediums such as air, water, and solids.


Through what do sound waves travel?

Sound waves travel through a medium, such as air, water, or solids.


Sound waves cannot travel on the?

Sound waves cannot travel through vaccum.


How do sound waves travel to a satellite?

Sound waves require a medium to travel through, and, since space is a vacuum, sound waves can't travel in it.


What materials will sound travel through?

Sound waves will travel through gases, liquids, and solids. Sound waves cannot pass through a vacuum.


Sound waves do not travel through what?

Sound waves do not travel through a vacuum. They require a medium, such as air, water, or solids, to propagate. In a vacuum, there are no particles for the sound waves to interact with and thus cannot travel.


Through what medium do sound waves travel?

Sound waves travel through a medium such as air, water, or solid materials.


Are sound waves the building block of an atom?

No, sound waves are not the building blocks of an atom. Atoms are made up of subatomic particles such as protons, neutrons, and electrons that interact through electromagnetic forces, while sound waves are mechanical vibrations that travel through a medium like air or water.


What type of waves travel through space?

Sound waves cannot travel through space.


Can sound waves travel through air?

Yes, sound waves can travel through air. Sound waves are mechanical waves that require a medium (like air, water, or solid materials) to propagate. In air, sound waves travel by compressing and rarefying air molecules as they move through the medium.
