Question

A metallic ruler is struck by Astronaut on the surface of moon will the ruler vibrate will the ruler produce sound

Answer 1

No,the ruler will not produce any kind of vibration or sound.

Because-

• Every type of vibration needs an environmental medium to propagate itself.

• And,there is no environmental medium around the moon. There is only absolute vacuum.

• That's why the vibration isn't generated due to the lack of the medium of propagation.

• Similarly,sounds are created by vibration and we previously discussed that there will be no vibration.

That's why there will be no sound too.

Answer 2

The metallic ruler struck by an astronaut does not vibrate, and does not produce any sound too on the surface of the moon. This is because of the absence of any sort of medium or the vacuum condition present there.

Explanation:

• Sound needs medium to travel and so the waves.
• On Earth's surface, air acts as the best medium for sound waves.
• On the contrary, as far as the researches reveal, there is no air or other such object to pass the sound waves.
• Literally, there is no such huge magnitude of gravitational force to hold the atmosphere on the moon at all.
