Question

We are able to hear sound originating from various objects as ____.

  1. The medium in which we are located is a material medium
  2. The sound is able to propagate through the medium
  3. The particles of the medium vibrate to transmit sound.
  4. All of the above

hintHint:

Sound is a mechanical wave.

The correct answer is: All of the above


    • Sound is produced when an object vibrates, creating a pressure wave, and transmitting.
    • Sound is a mechanical wave, they need a material medium for propagation.
    • So, the correct option is d.
