Question

How does sound propagate, explain with the help of a diagram

Answer 1

Answer:

Sound propagates through air or other mediums as a longitudinal wave, in which the mechanical vibration constituting the wave occurs along the direction of propagation of the wave.

Explanation:

A sound is an energy that is transmitted in the form of sound waves. When the objects vibrate, the air surrounding it vibrates and sound waves are carried. If there is no medium, then vibrations in an object will not travel through it. This is the mechanism for the propagation of sound.
