What happens to the air particles as the sound wave travels through them?
As the sound wave travels through the air, the air particles vibrate back and forth in the direction of the wave, transferring the sound energy.
Does light have both properties of particles and waves?
Yes, light has properties of both particles and waves. It exhibits behaviors characteristic of waves, such as interference and diffraction, as well as behaviors characteristic of particles, such as the photoelectric effect and the Compton effect. This duality is encapsulated in the wave-particle duality of light.
How does sound travels through the 3 states of matter?
Sound travels through solids the fastest, as the particles in solids are closely packed, enabling vibrations to propagate quickly. In liquids, sound travels at a slower speed compared to solids, as the particles are less tightly packed. In gases, sound travels slowest due to the large distance between particles, causing vibrations to propagate more slowly.
How does sound travel down through different mediums?
Sound travels through different mediums by creating vibrations that are transmitted from one particle to another. In solids, such as metal or wood, sound travels fastest because the particles are closely packed together. In liquids, like water, sound travels slower because the particles are more spread out. In gases, such as air, sound travels slowest because the particles are far apart.
Sound travels fastest in what?
sound travels fastest in solid (about 8x faster)
Light travels to plants as tiny packets of radiant energy called?
photon
Why is light called light?
light is a type of energy, it travels in packets of energy called photons
A transverse wave travels along z-axis The particles of the medium travels along?
z-axis
Who in history has helped us make sense of how light travels?
Albert Einstein is the foremost authority.
Why does sound travels best in solid?
sound is the vibration of air particles. but think about how far all the air particles are spaced from each other. now think of how close the solid's particles are spaced to one another. more particles will vibrate and so sound travels better

A sound must have what to travel?
There must be particles present for sound waves to travel. Sound travels by vibration, when one particle hits another. This is why there is no sound in a vacuum as no particles are present. Therefore, sound travels better within a space with a higher concentration of particles. For example, sound travels faster through a solid as opposed to a liquid or gas.
Will sound travel faster in solid liquid or gas?
Sound is a compression wave that travels via then vibrations of particles. If the particles are closer together then the wave (sound) moves faster. Particles are closer together in a liquid than a gas, therefore sound travels faster through liquids.
