Sound waves are a form of energy, so that energy may only be converted into another form. Energy can neither be created or destroyed in normal conditions.
Sound waves may be converted to heat, if the sound waves can move a material.
Glass fibre absorbs sound because the fibres are very small, and may be moved slightly by the sound. This converts some of the sound energy to heat.
In ordinary circumstances, you may consider that solid glass does not absorb sound. In fact it will absorb a little - a fraction of a percent, but that we may ignore.
What else can I help you with?
How does sound proof glass work?
Sound proof glass is actually two panes of glass that have a vacuum between them. Since sound is a wave, it need a medium through which to travel. That's why astronauts can't talk to each other in space without the use of microphones. With no atter, sound can't be transmitted. So the vacuum between the panes of glass creates an area of nothingness where sound cannot be transmitted, and makes it soundproof.
Do clocks absorb sound?
No they most definitely do not absorb sound
What is the sound of broken glass called?
The sound of broken glass is often described as a "shattering" sound.
Does wood reflect sound?
Wood does not reflect sound as well as harder, smoother surfaces like concrete or glass. Instead, wood tends to absorb sound waves, which can help reduce echoing and create a warmer, more pleasant acoustic environment.
Why does sound cause glass to vibrate?
Glass is a rigid material that can transmit sound vibrations effectively. When sound waves hit a glass surface, they cause the molecules in the glass to vibrate and produce sound. The frequency and intensity of the sound determine the amplitude of the glass vibrations.
Does glass wool absorb sound?
Yes, glass wool is effective at absorbing sound due to its fibrous structure and porous nature. It reduces sound transmission by trapping air within its fibers, which helps to dissipate sound energy. This makes glass wool a popular material for acoustic insulation in buildings and studios, helping to improve sound quality and reduce noise pollution.

Does concrete absorb sound?
No, concrete does not absorb sound as it very dense.
Can sound absorb electricity?
Yes because it's simple, it takes up room just like putting someting in a glass of water.

reverberants

Does jute bags absorb sound?
Yes, jute bags can help absorb sound due to their fibrous texture which can help dampen sound waves. However, the degree to which they absorb sound may be limited compared to specialized sound-absorbing materials.
Does leather absorb sound?
no
How do you tell if beads are glass?
If you tap your glass bead on glass it will make a "sharp" sound. If you tap your bead on glass and it makes a "dull" sound, it is most likely not made of glass.
