Can sound travel through other kinds of material than air if so does it travel differently?

Sound can travel through all matter. The speed at which it travels depends on the density of the material.


Can sound waves move through any kinds of matter?

Yes. Sound cannot travel in a vacuum.


Can energy go through water?

Absolutely! Electric energy, kinetic energy, sound waves, light waves, heat ... all kinds of energy travel very well through water.


What are two kinds of energy that travels in waves?

Kinetic and electromagnetic energy can travel in waves.


What kinds of space and matter can light travel through?

Light can travel through empty space, air, water, and transparent materials such as glass or some plastics. However, it cannot travel through opaque objects like walls, metals, or thick fog.


What kinds of wavs use matter to transer energy?

Sound.


What kinds of matter can sound travel through?

Sound waves (depending on length and initial decible level) can pass through any matter. In fact, it has been through the use of sound waves that we determined the core of our planet is mostly super hot-liquid iron!


Did waves carries energy?

most kinds of waves need something to travel through. Water waves, for example, travel along the surface of the water. A wave can even travel along a rope. Gases (such as air), liquids (such as water), and solids (such as rope) , all act as mediums. Waves that require a medium through which travel are called mechanical waves.Some waves do not require a medium to travel through. Light can travel and carry energy through empty space. Waves that can travel without a medium are called electromagnetic waves. :)


Does air travel through solids liquids and gases?

Air can travel through some kinds of solids, if they are porous. Otherwise it can't. It can travel through liquids in the form of bubbles. It does not exactly travel through gases so much as mix with them.


How many main kinds of waves are there?

There are three main kinds of waves: mechanical waves, electromagnetic waves, and matter waves. Mechanical waves require a medium to propagate, electromagnetic waves do not require a medium and can travel through a vacuum, and matter waves describe the wave-like behavior of particles at the quantum level.


Different kinds of energy waves that move at the speed of light in a vacuum make up the?

In any substance, all electromagnetic waves travel at the same speed that light travels through that substance.


Will a concussive blast wave from an explosion actually travel through the vacuum of outer space?

No, it won't. That's because the concussive blast wave (and sound, too, for that matter) requires a medium to travel through. That medium must conduct (carry or transfer) the energy of the wave. No mechanical medium equals no mechanical wave. However, if there are components of the blast that involve light or other kinds of electromagnetic radiation, those components will travel through the vacuum of space. They will not have the concussive impact that earth-bound waves will have.
