I think you mean medium not median.

Sound travels through vibrations. You need the particles in a solid, liquid or gas to be present to pass on those vibrations. One particle vibrating against another makes it vibrate. If you are in a vacuum (with no particles) sound will not travel.

Why can't sound travel easily through some materials?

Sound needs a medium to travel. It cannot travel through a vaccum.


What is mechaincal energy?

The form of energy that needs a medium to travel is known as mechanical energy.For example sound needs a medium to travel,that's why sound can't travel in vacuum,light needs no medium to travel it is non mechanical form of energy.


Which of these can sound not travel through?

Sound cannot travel through vacuum. It needs a medium, such as air, water, earth, etc.


Do air particles travel with sound sound waves?

since sound needs a medium for its propagation , it requires air particles to travel along with its waves.


Sound will NOT travel through?

Sound needs a matter based medium, so it will not travel through vacuum.


What sound waves need in order to travel?

First of all, it needs a source. But mostly, it needs vibrations. Depending on how strong the vibrations are determine how long the sound wave will travel.


What waves needs a medium to travel through?

Why did astronauts who did experminets on the moon communicate with each other using walkie talkies even when they were right next to one another?

Sound needs to travel in medium like air, but there is no air in outer space, so sound is unable to travel. So basically sound needs air to travel, if there is no air sound cannot travel, when sound is unable to travel you cannot communicate (talk, speak, etc)


Does sound travel in vaccum?

No, sound cannot travel in a vacuum because it requires a medium (such as air, water, or a solid material) to propagate. In the absence of a medium, there are no particles for sound waves to travel through, so sound cannot be transmitted.


Since sound is a mechanical wave sound needs a what to travel through?

Sound needs a medium to travel through. This medium can be air, water, or a solid material like metal. Sound waves transfer energy by vibrating particles in the medium they are traveling through.
