what are the mechanical wave whether sound is mechanical or non mechanical
Answers
Answer:
mechanical wave is a wave that is an oscillation of matter, and therefore transfers energy through a medium. While waves can move over long distances, the movement of the medium of transmission—the material—is limited. Therefore, the oscillating material does not move far from its initial equilibrium position.
Sound waves are another type of mechanical wave. They are compression waves that have a frequency between 20-20000 hertz and travel through dry air at an speed of approximately 340 m/sec at room temperature. ... Non-mechanical waves are waves that do not require a medium for the transfer of their energy to occur.
Answer:
Mechanical Waves need a medium to transmit energy from one point to other but Non-Mechanical wavesdo not need any medium to transmit energy.
Sound is a mechanical wave
