When you clap your hands together, the rapid collision of your hands creates a compression wave in the air. This compression wave travels to your ears and is picked up by your eardrums, which vibrate in response to the sound wave, sending signals to your brain that are interpreted as the sound of a clap.
Sound travels as a wave through a medium, such as air, water, or solids. The vibrations of particles in the medium create pressure changes that propagate as sound waves.
When sound travels, it creates vibrations in the medium it is passing through, such as air, water, or a solid material. These vibrations cause the particles in the medium to move back and forth, transferring the energy of the sound wave. As the sound wave continues to move through the medium, the particles vibrate and transfer the sound energy along the path of the wave.
Sound travels in water as a longitudinal wave.
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.
A longitudinal wave, like sound.

Sound travels as a wave through a medium, such as air, water, or solids. The vibrations of particles in the medium create pressure changes that propagate as sound waves.
The sound wave only travels in a medium, where the wave is in Longitudinal format.

These vibrations cause the particles in the medium to move back and forth, transferring the energy of the sound wave. As the sound wave continues to move through the medium, the particles vibrate and transfer the sound energy along the path of the wave.
Sound travels in longitudinal waves, which means that the particles of the medium move in the same direction as the wave is propagating. This is in contrast to transverse waves where the particles move perpendicular to the wave's direction.
No, sound is a wave not a current.
Yup.
the hands make a compression wave that travels through the air. Your ears pick up that compression wave and turns it into a neuron impulse that your brain registers as sound.
