Sound energy travels as sound waves. The waves bump into some objects and either compresses them for a split second or makes them vibrate. That makes an echo. Other than that, there is really nothing to it.

Why cant you pull objects with sound?

Sound waves do not contain physical force or energy to exert a pulling effect on objects. Sound waves are vibrations that travel through a medium, like air, but they do not possess the necessary properties to physically move objects through pulling.


What are the objects called that allow sound to travel through them?

Sound is a pressure wave. Objects that "allow" sound to travel through them could be called wave guides.


Why does hard objects reflect sound?

It reflects sound because sound can not travel through rubber as its got air bubbles in, and sound can not travel though gas as easily as it can travel through liquid, so its more easily reflected of rubber.


Can sound waves move objects?

Witch objects does sound travel through?

Sound can travel through most substances but the loudness depends on the substance.


Does everything have sound?

No, not everything produces sound. Sound is created by vibrations that travel through a medium, such as air, so objects that are not vibrating do not produce sound. Some objects are designed to absorb vibrations and dampen sound.


What do all objects do when they make a sound?

When objects make a sound, it is usually due to vibrations that create sound waves. These sound waves travel through the air and reach our ears, where they are processed by the brain to interpret the sound.


How do objects make sound?

An object makes sound by releasing sound waves that travel through the air, which we call vibrations


What objects are difficult for sound to travel through?

Sound has difficulty traveling through objects that are dense, thick, and non-porous. For example, walls, mountains, and metals can inhibit the transmission of sound due to their ability to reflect or absorb sound waves. Additionally, objects that are designed to block or muffle sound, such as soundproofing materials, can also impede the passage of sound.
