What medium the waves travel in?
Waves typically travel through a medium, which can be a solid, liquid, or gas. For example, sound waves travel through air or water, while seismic waves travel through the Earth's crust. Electromagnetic waves, such as light, can travel through a vacuum as well as through certain materials like glass or air.
What type of media can sound travel through?
Because waves, such as sound, need to travel through a medium, whether it be water, air, etc. Since in empty space, there is no air, therefore there is no medium to travel in, so sound cannot travel.Sound waves require a medium (solid, liquid or gas) to travel through. They do this by alternately compressing and rarifying the distanced between the atoms or molecules of the medium.
What material does sounds not travel well through?
Sound doesn't travel through any gases very well, Sound travels 10 times faster and much further (about 20Km) in liquids, and sound travels even better in solids as particles are closer together. Just so you know, sound DOES NOT travel through a vacuum (e.g space).
Sound can travel through what?
nothingA sound wave is a mechanical wave that can travel through any gasses, liquids, or solids. sound waves can not travel in outer space because there is nothing for the wave to travel through.Sound is vibration. Thus, it travels through anything that has mass. While it can travel through the air, the travel time and the clarity get better and better as the object gets denser and denser. Seeing as space has no mass, sound cannot travel in space.
Do sound waves only work in air, or can they travel through other mediums as well?
Sound waves can travel through other mediums besides air, such as water and solids.

How well does sound travel through jello?
2.4 decibles
How well does sound travl through gas?
Better than through a vacuum, not as well (or as rapidly) as through a liquid or a solid.

Can sound travel through water or wood?
I am not sure about wood, but sound travels through water VERY well.

Can sound travel around corner?
Sound certainly can travel around corners. Sound can also travel through hard surfaces like walls and bathroom surfaces as well.
What must be present for sound to travel?
For sound to travel, three main components are required: a source of vibration, a medium through which the sound waves can travel (such as air, water, or a solid material), and a receiver to detect the sound waves (such as a human ear or a microphone). When an object vibrates, it creates sound waves that travel through the medium as a series of compressions and rarefactions, which are then detected by the receiver as sound.
How does sound waves travel through gases?
Sound moves in waves. The waves create a ripple effect. The sound is made, which causes in the air, or gas, or liquid to move or vibrate, then it bumps into another atom, which moves or vibrates, and so on. Sound moves better in substances in which the atoms are closer. Sound travels great in solids, okay in liquids, and not so well in gases, but it still can travel through them.
Do sound waves only work in air, or can they travel through other mediums as well?
Sound waves can travel through other mediums besides air, such as water and solids.
Do sound waves travel best through air?
Surprisingly no. Air is a gas which means that the molecules are far apart. Even a liquid is better that air for sound to travel through because the molecules are closer together. But, a solid is the best for a sound to travel through. This is because the molecules are very close together so the vibration is transferred much quicker though the material.
