Sound is more than just noise. It's a mechanical wave made of pressure changes that travels through materials like air, water, or tissue.

Sound waves are not just noise but also vibrations that travel through the air, water or tissue and can influence the cells in the body.

Since sound is made up of mechanical waves that travel through substances like air, water or tissue, the researchers designed a system to "bathe cultured cells in acoustic waves".

UChicago Medicine is using a new technology to destroy liver tumors without radiation, chemotherapy or even cutting the skin.

New research suggests that sound waves can influence cellular activity, including stopping the development of fat.

Sound waves travel through different types of matter, including liquid water. Importantly, the movement of ocean water can greatly affect how sound waves travel from one point to another.

These acoustic waves travel by compressing and expanding the water, similar to how sound moves through the air.

The film "LearningAboutSound" explores the science of sound, detailing how vibrations create sound waves that travel through different mediums like air, water, and solids. It explains key concepts ...
