What else can I help you with?
Which of these would allow sound to travel fastest air wood or water?
Sound travels fastest in solids, so it would travel fastest in wood compared to air and water.
Sound travels fastest in which medium and why?
Sound travels fastest in solids because the particles in a solid are more tightly packed, allowing sound waves to move more quickly through them than in liquids or gases where particles are more spread out.
Which wave would travel fastest in a vacuum light or sound?
Light would travel faster in a vacuum compared to sound. Light travels at the speed of light in a vacuum, which is approximately 300,000 kilometers per second, while sound cannot travel in a vacuum as it requires a medium to propagate through, such as air, water, or solids.
If a cymbal were struck in space how do you predict the sound waves would travel?
PLATO USERS! They would not travel, because here is no medium present.
What would sound travel LEAST efficiently in?
Sound would travel least efficiently in a vacuum because there are no particles for the sound waves to travel through. Sound waves rely on a medium, such as air or water, to propagate.
States would sound waves usually travel the fastest?
Sound waves travel the fastest through nonporous solids.
Which of these would allow sound to travel fastest air wood or water?
Sound travels fastest in solids, so it would travel fastest in wood compared to air and water.
Sound travels fastest in which medium and why?
Sound travels fastest in solids because the particles in a solid are more tightly packed, allowing sound waves to move more quickly through them than in liquids or gases where particles are more spread out.
What season would allow sound to travel the fastest?
Summer
Can sound travel through a vaccum?
Sound is basically the vibration of atoms or molecules of a solid, liquid, or gas that propgate throughout the medium. Sound MUST have a medium to travel through; if there were no medium there to vibrate in, it would have no frequency and therefore would not be able to be heard. Since a vacuum is a space devoid of all matter, there would be no medium for the sound waves to propgate in, so therefore, no sound.
What is the medium sound from a stereo would travel through?
air!
Which wave would travel fastest in a vacuum light or sound?
Light would travel faster in a vacuum compared to sound. Light travels at the speed of light in a vacuum, which is approximately 300,000 kilometers per second, while sound cannot travel in a vacuum as it requires a medium to propagate through, such as air, water, or solids.
What is it that sound cannot travel through?
Sound can travel through any medium. If you remove the medium you would end up with a vacuum. It is in vacuums that sound cannot travel as it needs a medium to travel (it travels as a compression wave or shear wave). Space is almost a perfect vacuum so sound is unable to travel through space.
If a cymbal were struck in space how do you predict the sound waves would travel?
PLATO USERS! They would not travel, because here is no medium present.
What is the name of speed of sound?
The speed of sound is a Mach. 1 Mach for a particular medium is the distance that sound would travel through that medium in 1 second.
What would sound travel LEAST efficiently in?
Sound would travel least efficiently in a vacuum because there are no particles for the sound waves to travel through. Sound waves rely on a medium, such as air or water, to propagate.
Can there be sound with no atmosphere?
No, sound requires a medium to travel through, such as air, water, or solid materials. In the absence of an atmosphere, like in space, sound cannot propagate because there are no molecules to carry the vibrations.
