Explain How Sound Travels Differently Than Light
The faster waves travel the more crests or compressions pass by you each second. Why does sound go faster in some things than in others. How Does Sound Travel Poster Science Sound Science Teaching Resources Sound Waves For Kids Sound Waves Liquids are not packed as tightly. . Sound can only travel through a medium substance while light can travel through empty space. The molecules in solids are packed very tightly. No there is no sound in space. Materials with higher elastic properties return to their normal shape faster making it easier for sound to travel through them. Light is made of vibrations in the electric and magnetic fields. The length of sound waves vary according to its frequency. Have four different volunteers hold the balloons and listen to music. When sound travels through gaseous medium its speed varies with respect to changes in temperature. Have them describe the difference in the sound w...
