a vaccum.
answer is D vacuum (for penn foster)
Sound waves cannot travel through a vacuum as there is no matter and pressure is so low that any particles in the space do not affect any processes being carried on vacuum.
A vacuum, as there is no substance to vibrate.
they travel through everything because they bend around objects

Does sound pass through vacuum?

No, sound cannot pass through a vacuum because sound requires a medium, such as air, water, or a solid material, to travel through. In a vacuum, there are no particles for sound waves to propagate through, so they cannot travel.


What materials will sound travel through?

Sound waves will travel through gases, liquids, and solids. Sound waves cannot pass through a vacuum.


Why sound cannot travel in a vacium?

Sound is not an electromagnetic wave, which can pass through a vacuum, but a vibration wave which requires matter to vibrate. A vacuum has no matter to vibrate, therefor sound cannot pass through it.


Can sound energy pass through opaque objects?

Sound energy cannot pass through opaque objects as they block the transmission of sound waves. Opaque objects do not allow sound waves to propagate through them, unlike transparent or translucent objects.


Can sound wave pass through in vacuum?

No - sound wave cannot pass through "vacuum". It was Robert Boyle, English scientist who proved in 1960 that sound waves need to pass through a medium to transmit sound. This can be tested as follows: Place a bell inside a chamber and slowly start evacuating air from the chamber. It can be seen that sound of the bell is slowly becoming softer, until there is absolutely no sound.


Why cant sound pass through a vacuum?

Sound requires a medium to travel through, such as air, water, or a solid material. In a vacuum, there is no medium for sound waves to propagate, so sound cannot travel through it.


What medium can a sound wave pass through?

Sound waves can pass through mediums such as air, water, and solids, as they require a material medium to propagate. Sound waves cannot pass through a vacuum as there are no particles for the waves to vibrate and travel through.


What state of matter does sound energy pass through?

Sound can pass through any state of matter.


What can sound not penetrate?

Sound cannot penetrate through a vacuum, as there are no particles present to transmit the sound waves. Additionally, sound waves may have difficulty passing through very dense materials such as thick walls or metal barriers.


What ia a Insulator?

An insulator is an object that electricity, heat or sound cannot pass through. It is the opposite to conductor.


What cannot pass through an opaque material?

Light cannot pass through an opaque material.


Why Do astronauts cannot hear each other on the moon?

Astronauts cannot hear each other on the moon due to the lack of air and atmosphere, which are necessary for sound to travel. Sound waves need a medium to propagate, and in the vacuum of space, there is no medium for sound to travel through. While astronauts can communicate through radios inside their helmets, they cannot rely on sound to transmit through the lunar environment.
