Nerve Endings Sound Waves

Waves Sound Waves Sound Waves Waves are
disturbances that travel through a space while
changing its matter. A sound wave is what allows
us to hear sounds. It is created by vibrations,
which are made by the movement of matter. Sound
waves must travel through a solid, a liquid, or a
gas. The more tight the particles, the faster the
wave will travel. This would mean that a sound
wave travels fastest through solids and slowest
through gases. The speed that it travels through a
liquid would come some...
