Sound Waves Cannot Travel Through (A) Solids (B) Liquids (C) Gases (D) Vacuum

Answer: (D) Vacuum

Sound waves are unable to propagate through the vacuums. A vacuum is an empty space where there is no presence of liquids, gases, solids, etc. Sound waves require particles to vibrate and in vacuum particles are absent that means sound waves cannot travel through vacuum.
