The glass is resonating at a certain vibration and is excited at the same vibration it has more space to move in so it shatters when it tries to get into the bigger space available. Similar to when a bomb goes off everything shatters. I may be wrong.
The sound waves produced by the vocal chords contain energy and this energy is transmitted though the air to the glass, sound waves are pressure waves. The glass vibrates in resonance with the pressure variations and energy builds up in it to the point where it can shatter.
Glass breaks from sound due to a phenomenon called resonance. When sound waves hit glass at its resonant frequency, the vibrations can become so intense that they exceed the glass's strength, causing it to shatter. This is similar to shattering a glass by singing at the right pitch next to it.
If the sound waves are strong enough the shattering of glass occurs when glass vibrates at the same frequency as the sound waves on the outer surface of the glass, but at lower frequencies inside the glass. This causes interference in the waveforms moving through the glass, which stress the glass, causing it to break. This is a different effect than when a single sharp sound, such as an explosion, pushes the glass beyond its breaking point.
yes. it depends on the intensity of the sound
because glass is more dense, meaning the particles are more tightly together, because its a solid. sound travles fastest through gas because gases arnt very dense, their particles arent so tightly put together, so its easier for the sound waves to get through

High frequency sound waves can shatter glass if powerful enough. This happens because the glass vibrates at the same frequency as the sound waves on the outer surface of the glass, but at lower frequencies inside the glass. This causes interference in the waveforms moving through the glass, which stress the glass, causing it to break. This is a different effect than when a single sharp sound, such as an explosion, pushes the glass beyond its breaking point.

The vibrations. If a glass exhibits resonance (a clear tone when struck or tapped it exhibits resonance) it can be shattered by using sound waves at that frequency. This causes distortions in the surface which build and cause it to shatter.

No, sound waves cannot shatter diamonds. Diamonds are extremely hard and durable, making them resistant to damage from sound waves. They would require a significant amount of force or pressure to break.
The resonant frequency of glass is the frequency at which it vibrates most easily. When glass is exposed to its resonant frequency, it can shatter due to the increased vibrations. This property is often used in applications like breaking glass with sound waves.
Glass breaks when exposed to sound waves due to a phenomenon called resonance. When the frequency of the sound waves matches the natural frequency of the glass, it causes the glass to vibrate intensely, leading to its breakage.
Sound does not spread out in particles but in waves. Imagine dropping a pebble in a still lake...and that is how sound waves spread out. Sound waves can also reverberate through harder materials; however, soft materials absorb the vibrations.
since sound needs a medium for its propagation , it requires air particles to travel along with its waves.
