Answer:Sound are propagated from one location to another via a medium
Explanation:The way sound travels depends upon the medium so we will discuss how does sound travel in each of them, firstly in gaseous medium sound travel by alternae development of compression and rarefaction what this means is, when a source produces some disturbance in the gaseous medium the molecules of air near it are compressed then ro retain equilibrium the compression travels in all directions and we perceive this disturbance as sound, when the compressed air moves ahead it leaves behind a rarefied (thinned) air which is again filled up by the surrounding molecules of air.
In solids also sound travel via alternate compression and rarefaction
However in liquids it is quite different at the surface of the liquid the sound travel in the form of waves by forming alternate crests and troughs. And inside the liquids it again travels via alternate compression and rarefaction
