The vibration that propagates as an acoustic is the Propagation of sound
Explanation:
Sound waves need to travel through a medium such as solids, liquids, and gases.
- The sound waves move through each of these mediums by vibrating the molecules in the matter.
- The molecules in solids are packed very tightly. Liquids are not packed as tightly.
- And gases are very loosely packed. This enables sound to travel much faster through a solid than a gas.
- Sound travels about four times faster and farther in water than it does in air. This is why whales can communicate over huge distances in the oceans.
- Sound waves travel about thirteen times faster in wood than air.
- They also travel faster on hotter days as the molecules bump into each other more often than when it is cold
