sound waves can travel through solids, liquids or gases. The speed of sound depends on the medium through which it is travelling. When travelling through air, the speed of sound is about 330 metres per second (m/s). Sound cannot travel through a
because there are no particles to carry the vibrations.

- Sound is a type of energy induced by vibrations. When air particles.
- These particles bump into other particles closer to them. This makes thustriggering them to bump into some more air particles.
- Sound waves are formed in this manner and they continue to travel on till they run out of energy.
- If our ears are within the range of these vibrations, and these waves fall on our ears, we hear the sound.
- Sound travels in waves. Irregular and repeating sound waves produce noise, while systematic repeating waves.
