Sound waves require a medium to travel through, such as a solid, liquid, or gas because?

Answered by admin @



Answer:

The molecules of solid, liquid and gases carry sound waves from one point to another. Sound cannot progress through the vacuum (the lack of a medium) because the vacuum has no molecules which can vibrate and carry the sound waves.
