How Does Sound Travel?
Sound is an amazing factor, it helps us to communicate. Sound is a series of compression waves that travel from a source. Sound can travel long distances and its speed depends on the density of the medium through which it travels. Sound travels through various types of medium that contains molecules. For example, water, air, solids or anything that has molecules close to each other help sound waves to move through. When they move, they cause the particles in this substance to vibrate and create sound. So without a medium, sound cannot travel.
