Question

Give scientific reason of "As the sound wave propagates from one place to the other in air, the air itself is not required to move from one place to the other."

Answer 1

because the particles come in contact with each other and start vibrating this produces the sound

Answer 2

Propagation of sound through air occurs due to energy transfer by vibrating air molecules in one reason to those in the adjacent sides and away from the source. The molecules vibrates about them in position hence air itself is not required to move from one place to another.

I think it is right answer
