Do black holes make sound in space?

No, black holes do not make sound in space because sound requires a medium to travel through, and space is a vacuum with no medium for sound waves to propagate.


What waves traveli space that make there no sound?

In space, electromagnetic waves travel and carry energy without the need for a medium, such as air, to propagate. This is why sound cannot travel in the vacuum of space as it requires a medium to transmit the vibrations that we perceive as sound.


How fast would the speed of sound be if you could hear sound in space?

Well, we know that in any material medium, the speed of sound increases along with the density of the medium. The more dense the medium, the higher the speed of sound, and the less dense the medium, the lower the speed of sound. All of this points in the direction that as the density of the medium tends toward zero, the speed of sound in it also tends toward zero. So I guess in space, where the density of material stuff is next to zero, we would expect that the speed of sound would also be next to zero. But consider this: We know that you can't hear sound in space. Since you have already made up a pretend condition for your question, saying that you can hear sound in space, why don't you go ahead and make up a speed too; whatever pleases you.


When a feather falls would it make a sound?

No, a feather falling through air would not make a sound because it is light and does not displace enough air to create vibrations that we perceive as sound.


Is sound in outerspace?

no trust me there isn't don't make me go in to explaning it

Do planets make sound when they orbit?

No, planets do not make sound as they orbit. Sound requires a medium, like air or water, to travel through, and space is a vacuum where sound cannot propagate. Additionally, the movement of planets in their orbits is not accompanied by any vibrations that would produce sound waves.


If a cymbal were struck in space, how do you predict the waves of sound would travel?

Since space is a vacuum, sound waves do not travel through space. Sound waves need a substance to travel through, since there is nothing in a vacuum, sound waves have nothing to travel through. Thus, a cymbal struck in space would not make an audible sound.


Can you make a sound in space?

Is there any kind of silencer for saxo phone?

No, but the best way to make it quieter is to play into a closet or a smaller space where the sound will stay and not resonate.


What s the speed of sound in space?

Basically, sound doesn't travel in space, i.e., in a vacuum.Speed = distance/timeIf you make a sound over here in space, it would take an infinite time to arriveover there, since sound doesn't travel at all in space. The formula becomesSpeed = distance/∞and that's zero .

How does a telephone make sound?

Electrical impulses sent down the phone-line are converted back into sound by the phone's electronics.


Can you hear your self in space?

No, you cannot hear yourself in space because sound requires a medium, like air or water, to travel through. Space is a vacuum, which means it lacks the necessary molecules to carry sound waves. Therefore, any sound you make would not be transmitted or heard.


How do you make sound on alchemic phone?

First, make sure the sound for your device is on. Then go into the alchemic phone app. At the bottom center of the screen is a gear in a circle. If you click on this, it will take you to a page where you can adjust the various sound settings for the Alchemic Phone App.


If the earth is rotating why space is so silent?

If you expect the rotation to produce a sound, that would require the Earth to scrape against something. This would produce sound and heat, and make the Earth's movement slow down gradually. However, space is almost empty.


How do drums sound in space?

Most likely gravity believe it or not, the sound waves travel differently :)
