Question

In a particular medium the vibration of an object does not produce a sound. The medium is ____.

  1. Vacuum
  2. Air
  3. Water
  4. Steel

hintHint:

Sound doesn't travel in a vacuum.

The correct answer is: Vacuum


    • Sound is a mechanical wave that needs a strong medium to travel
    • Sound is produced by the vibration of objects in a medium (solid, liquid, or gas).
    • Sound doesn't travel in a vacuum.
