Energy. The vibration of atoms is considered heat energy, and the rate of vibration its temperature. Not a 'real' answer since neither "energy" and "mass" are well understood in physics. Certainly not as well as they can be measured and 'predicted' by theory.

What is the process of a wave?

A wave is created when a disturbance causes particles to oscillate back and forth. This disturbance transfers energy through the moving particles in a wave-like pattern. The wave moves through a medium, such as air or water, by making the particles in the medium vibrate.


The matter through which waves transfers energy?

The matter through which waves transfer energy is called the medium. Waves can travel through different mediums such as air, water, and solids, and they transfer energy by causing particles in the medium to vibrate.


What does the wave transfer?

A wave transfers energy and information through a medium or space by oscillating particles or fields. The wave causes the particles of the medium to vibrate in a repeating pattern, which carries the energy and information along its path.


Material through which a wave transfers energy?

The material through which a wave transfers energy is called a medium. In a medium, such as air, water, or solids, particles vibrate or move as the wave passes through, transferring energy from one point to another. Waves can also propagate through vacuum, as seen in the case of electromagnetic waves.


What is determined by how often the particles in an object vibrates when a wave passes through the object?

The temperature of the object is determined by how often the particles vibrate when a wave passes through it. The higher the temperature, the more the particles vibrate.


Can a mechanical wave transfer matter?

No, mechanical waves transfer energy through a medium (such as air, water, or solids) by causing particles in the medium to vibrate. However, the particles themselves do not travel along with the wave.


Does conduction vibrate particles?

Yes, conduction can lead to particles vibrating. When heat is conducted through a material, it causes the particles in the material to vibrate more rapidly, which in turn increases the material's temperature.


What wave creates sound?

Things vibrating, such as a speaker or your voice box.


Where can't sound travel through?

A vacuum, there are no oxygen particles for it to make vibrate.


How does sound go through objects?

Sound can travel through solids, liquids, and gases by causing the particles of the medium to vibrate. When a sound wave encounters a material, the particles in the material vibrate and transfer the sound energy through the medium. The denser the material, the faster sound will travel through it.


What does a wave transfer if the particles themselves do not move?

If the particles themselves do not move, then you have no wave, and nothing is transferred.If the particles are free to move about their rest positions, then you can have a wave, andit can transfer energy from place to place.


Which kind of matter does sound move the slowest?

Gas because it has the farthest distributed particles which take time for them to contact one another. Energy transfers slower when the particles are mores spreadout.
