Explain why cant sound travel through vacuums?

there is no air in a vaccum. and sound needs air for the sound waves to travel through.

No medium to carry the sound energy.


Why can't sound waves travel though space?

Why cant sound trave through empty space?

Sound requires a medium, such as air or water, to travel through. In the absence of a medium, such as in empty space, there are no particles for sound waves to propagate through, so sound cannot travel.


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 does sound need to travel through?

Sound (and vibration) are a wave system of sequential compressions and rarefactions of a material. These waves are mechanical and do need a substance through which to travel. They cannot travel through a vacuum.


What is something you cant see touch or feel but you can hear it?

Sound. Sound waves are vibrations that travel through a medium such as air and can be heard by our ears.


Why cant you hear anything in a vacuum?

Sound requires a medium to travel through, such as air or water. In a vacuum, there is a lack of molecules for sound waves to transmit through, so there is no medium to carry the sound. As a result, sound cannot travel through a vacuum and therefore cannot be heard.


What cant secondary waves travel through?

Ocean


Why cant they be sound on the moon?

Because sounds are created by vibrations that our eardrums pick-up. In order for the sound waves to travel, there has to be something for it to travel through, either the air, water, solids, etc.


Can compression waves be transmitted through a vacuum of space?

no the only waves that can go through space is the electromagnetic waves and it doesnt need sound or matter to travel.compressional waves have to come off of something and travel{like sound} it cant travel because there is nothing to travel through.the vacuum of space is just nothing and only light can go through as well, but it takes time.


Why cant you pull objects with sound?

Sound waves do not contain physical force or energy to exert a pulling effect on objects. Sound waves are vibrations that travel through a medium, like air, but they do not possess the necessary properties to physically move objects through pulling.
