What to Focus On
- Sound is produced by vibrations.
- When vibration stops, sound stops.
- Vibratory motion means oscillatory motion with change in shape.
- Sound needs a medium to travel.
- Sound cannot travel through a vacuum.
- Sound travels in solids, liquids, and gases.
- Sound wave in air is a longitudinal wave.
- Particles of air vibrate along the direction of sound travel.
- Compression is a region where particles move towards a point.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Sound can travel through empty space.
Sound is produced by the movement of air alone, not by vibration of the source.
All oscillatory motion is vibratory motion.
