it travels because there are sound waves in the air and they vibrate in your ear.

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.
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.
Why can light travel through space but sound cannot?
sound is produced by vibration, i.e. when any thing start vibration then it produces sound. for example when a tunnig fork is hit on rubber pad its prongs starts vibration with difinit frequency ad hence produce sound. similarly when the strings of a gittar is dirturbed its starts vibration and hence produces sound. sound required a material medium for their journey, sound can not pass through vaccume because sound waves are mechanical waves.
Does sound travel faster in warmer or colder air?
I would think in warmer Air....
Is it true that sound waves travel faster through air than through solids?
Through solids because the particles are closer than gas particles.
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.
Does sound travel quicker through air or water?
through air.
Can sound waves travel through air?
Yes sound waves can make a sound in the air
Can sound travel through air and evidence?
Sound travels through air. Experiment: Listen. Result: Do you hear anything? That sound has traveled through air.
When is uni-lag pedIgree form coming out?
since the sound requires a medium to travel through. so the air is one of the medium for sound to travel. Therefore sound can travel through air.
Does sound travels through air?
We are in air, and we can hear each other. Thus, sound can travel in air.Yes. A sound wave can travel through air (gases), liquids, and solids.
Sound requires a what through which it travel?
Air.
What does sound travel through air by?
Aeroplane
Did the sound travel better through the string or through the air Why?
Sound will travel better in string because speed of sound on solids is greater than that in air. As string is a solid so sound will travel faster (or better) in string than in air
How sound travel through air?
Sound travels because of the sound waves.
Which of these can sound not travel through?
Sound cannot travel through vacuum. It needs a medium, such as air, water, earth, etc.
What sound cant travel through?
sound can't travel through a vacuum. or a place without air.
