What type of mediums do sound waves travel trough?
Sound waves can travel through mediums such as air, water, and solid materials like metal or wood. The speed and behavior of sound waves can vary depending on the properties of the medium they are traveling through.
How does sound travel through fewer particles?
Sound can still travel through fewer particles because it propagates by causing the particles to vibrate and pass the energy along. Even in sparser mediums, such as in outer space, sound can still travel through the few particles present, but it may not propagate as effectively as in denser mediums like air or water.
How is hearing on Earth differ from hearing in space?
Depends on if you mean hearing in a space shuttle, or hearing out in real "space." Sound travels through air, so if you were out in real "space," sound waves would not travel since there is no air (or other medium for sound to travel in). If you were in a space shuttle, with air, and different objects, sound would be transmitted much in the same way that it is on Earth, and would be perceived much in the same way as well. This is why astronauts can speak freely with one another aboard space crafts.
How do the properties of light waves and sound waves differ in terms of their propagation through different mediums?
Light waves can travel through a vacuum, such as outer space, while sound waves require a medium, like air or water, to propagate. Light waves travel much faster than sound waves, with a speed of about 186,282 miles per second in a vacuum, compared to the speed of sound waves, which is about 767 miles per hour in air. Additionally, light waves can be reflected, refracted, and diffracted, while sound waves can only be reflected and refracted.
What is the speed of sound in space and how does it differ from the speed of sound in a medium such as air or water?
In space, sound cannot travel because there is no medium for it to propagate through. In a medium like air or water, the speed of sound varies depending on the density and elasticity of the medium. In general, sound travels faster in solids, slower in liquids, and slowest in gases like air.

What if there was sound in space, how loud would it be?
As loud as sound would be normally.

Why does sound travel fastest through a sold then a liquid and a gas?
That's because sound is a compression wave. It needs a medium to travel through. The best mediums are dense, like metal and concrete. Liquids are okay. Gasses are the worst. Sound will not travel in space because there's no medium for sound to travel through.

Why astronauts cannot hear each other in space?
Space is vacuum, and sound can't travel in vacuum.
In which matter does sound travel best?
Sound travels best through solids because the particles in a solid are closer together, allowing for better transmission of vibrations. Liquids and gases are less dense and have more space between particles, making sound travel less efficiently in these mediums.
How would a drum played on earth differ from a drum played in outer space?
Most likely gravity believe it or not, the sound waves travel differently :)
How does sound react with different phases of matter?
Sound waves have to go through a medium, or matter. Usually the medium is air, but they can go through any matter. Sound waves cannot exist in outer space because there is no matter for the wave to travel through. Sound waves travel at different speeds, depending on the medium. This is similar to light, because light slows down in mediums other than air (eg. water, crystal, ect.)
Why cant you hear each other in space?
Sound waves require a medium, such as air or water, to travel through. In space, there is a near-vacuum with very few particles to carry sound waves. Therefore, without a medium to propagate through, sound cannot travel in space.
