  • Can you hear sound in space? In this video I put a speaker in my vacuum chamber along with a diaphragm with vibrating salt to see what happens when I suck all the air out of the vacuum chamber. The pressure waves vibrate the salt when there is air in the chamber, but once it is mostly gone the diaphragm stops vibrating even though the speaker is still playing! I play a sine wave at 800 Hz to get the salt vibrating. At full vacuum I didn't see any salt vibrating at all. This is a good example of why you can't hear anything in space.

    There are some people commenting that you would hear an explosion in space because the gas from the explosion would create the medium in which you could hear the sound. I did a quick calculation to check if that would be the case. So lets assume that we have a 100 L canister under 10,000 bars of pressure that explodes in space and we are 10 meters away. The gas will expand adiabatically (no transfer of heat) such that when it hits us, the pressure will only be 0.003 bars! That is still a much better vacuum than I had in this experiment. But based on the experiments of Cody's Lab we see that the initial pressure wave can have enough kinetic energy to at least move a paper, which means it could move your eardrum. So depending on your definition of sound then you could say that an explosion hits you with its own gas which will make a sound to you!
    For this calculation: Assume gas is diatomic so gamma=7/5. Assume gas is ideal. So PV^gamma=constant. So the constant we can find from P_initial*V_initial^(7/5)=10000*100^(7/5)=6*10^6. Then after the gas hits us at 10 meters away it has expanded to a volume of 4.2*10^6 Liters. Using the same relation: PV^gamma=6*10^6 then we get that the pressure =0.003 bars!

      It doesn't matter. No vibrating means no sound waves, which means your ear drums won't vibrate, which in turn, means you can't hear sound.

    • @Smartguy561
      @Smartguy561 6 років тому +2

      Ihavenoidea actually, this is not true, because outer space is not truly empty. If we understand that space has an ether, (all particles have a real time electrical connection which is proved by quantum entanglement) then we understand that sound will travel through the ether the same as light and electricity in space, so there is sound in space.

    • @johnvee4037
      @johnvee4037 6 років тому

      You might hear something, but that's because the way a sound box works is (electrically) vibrating a piece of magnet to create the sound waves. Without air the sound waves doesnt exist, but the vibration does, and because the sound box is attached to the chamber wall, the whole thing is vibrating making a hum.
      It's like when you hold a phone playing music, you can slightly feel it vibrating.

    So when I did this experiment I found that the speaker simply did not work in the vacuum due to internal pressure behind the diaphragm keeping it from vibrating. How did you solve that issue?

    • @TheActionLab
      @TheActionLab  7 років тому +46

      +Cody'sLab the only check I did for that was to have the speaker on the floor of the vacuum and you could still hear a strong sound due to the vibration of the speaker against the acrylic, but when it was in the air you couldn't hear it. So I assumed the cone was still vibrating under vacuum.

    • @ChintamaniHelekar
      @ChintamaniHelekar 7 років тому +5

      or play the speaker upside down and stick a small thread with tiny weight to the diaphragm(like a pendulum) so that even in vacuum,you would know that speaker is working as the weight will bounce with diaphragm.

    • @batmaaaaaaaaaaaaan

    When I was in HS we had a little vacuum chamber & we put a fire alarm bell, an old style one that has an actual bell & a hammer, in the vacuum chamber. We tried suspending it with several different materials & could never get it totally silent but it was still really neat seeing the hammer going like mad against the bell & just barely hearing it. It went from uncomfortably loud to straining to hear it. If I recall correctly, we got the best results by suspending the bell with rubber bands. We may have not had a 100% vacuum or some sound was still traveling up the rubber bands. Whatever the reason, even with a little continued sound, I thought it was neat enough to mention it in a UA-cam comment 30 years later.

  • @reynardpachulski6879

    If I was fortunate enough to have a vacuum chamber, I'm curious if the noise generated by the speaker became more quite, higher pitched, or both.

    • @TheActionLab
      @TheActionLab  7 років тому +6

      +Logan Pachulski it just gets quieter, pitch stays the same. This is because the amount of air just affects the amplitude (volume) the cycles per second of the cone in the speaker vibrating is what determines the pitch. That wasn't affected by the vacuum.

    • @TimpBizkit
      @TimpBizkit 6 років тому

      Well the vibration of the speaker is determined by an electrical current sent to its coil, so it would stay the same.
      It's not like some reed instrument loaded into a tube whose frequency is determined by 4 x the length of the pipe/speed of sound in that air pressure. You'd expect a reed instrument to go lower pitched but quieter, because the speed of sound reduces in less air pressure.
      It is not like helium where the density is lower even at a high pressure which causes the air to have a high "spring constant to weight ratio" meaning sound waves are passed on quickly as vibration down a stiff lightweight spring as composed to a loose slinky.

  • @johntheux9238
    @johntheux9238 7 років тому +2

    In my opinion, by using a suitable loudspeaker we can pass sound in an almost perfect vacuum. The maximum volume in the atmosphere is 196 decibels, so as when the sound is increased by 20 decibels the acoustic pressure is multiplied by 10 it is possible to reach 120 decibels under a vacuum of 0.0001 bar.

  • @zeroc977
    @zeroc977 7 років тому +1

    Question: The vibrational waves gradually stop traveling through as the vacuum is created, so if the waves were stronger to begin with, they would keep the salt moving for a longer period of time. My question is if the vibrational waves are really strong, will they still be incapable of traveling through? even a little bit? Like... can sheer power of a strong enough explosion destroy a vacuum for a few moments?

  • @Shrimplington
    @Shrimplington 7 років тому +27

    An explosion in space would still be heard because an explosion is a rapid expansion of gas. The gas would collide with your suit/ship and relay the sound. It likely would not sound like an explosion though. Cody's lab did a 2 part series on it.

    • @TheActionLab
      @TheActionLab  7 років тому +3

      +Ethan Winder good point, although I guess I was assuming you were far enough away that by the time it got to you it would have very little sound/pressure . I wouldn't want to be close enough to hear it!

    • @Shrimplington
      @Shrimplington 7 років тому +2

      Very fair I suppose. If you where close enough to hear it with any volume then the pressure wave would at least knock the ship. At the time I was thinking the gas wouldn't lose momentum due to being in a vacuum/space. I never thought about how the further from the explosion you are the more spread out the particles are due to it forming a spherical shape

    • @TheActionLab

    • @lajoswinkler
      @lajoswinkler 7 років тому

      Depending on the amount and the speed of the stuff hitting you, you could hear something. But it's not the sound of the explosion. It's just the material hitting your suit/ship and producing sound in it.
      Sound is elastic medium oscillation. Gas particles flying in all directions are not sound. It's very straightforward.

    • @batmaaaaaaaaaaaaan
      @batmaaaaaaaaaaaaan 7 років тому

    Would be interesting to know if all frequencies are equally dampened as pressure lowers. Couldn't find much info on this, probably because it's drowned in the majority of tests that only care about full vacuum. Would also be interesting to know if it affects speed of sound, like apparently temperature does.

    • @Lucius_Chiaraviglio
      @Lucius_Chiaraviglio 3 роки тому

      Sound with a wavelength less than the mean free path of gas particles won't transmit (and practically speaking, sound of wavelength that isn't a LOT longer than the mean free path of gas particles will get attenuated really quickly). But at 1% of 1 atmosphere (which I think is what his vacuum pump can get to), the mean free path is still quite short, so probably all frequencies we can hear still transmit just fine -- except that the energy isn't transmitted very well from the speaker to the thin air, so the sound waves are too weak to move the salt grains.

  • @jwonacott9615
    @jwonacott9615 6 років тому

    One argument for possibly hearing am explosion in space is that an explosion is rapidly expanding gas. This creates a blast wave, when this blast wave makes contact with solid objects with gas in them it transfer that wave energy to that object. And if enough energy is absorbed by the object to create waves inside a ship or a space suit then a person may hear it. But... Sounds by just creating vibrations would not make sound because it has no medium to transfer the oscillating pressures. Explosions kind of create their own sound medium, so it may be possible to hear an explosion in space.

    Explosions usually give of gasses and particulates that carry the sound of the explosion, they would quickly dissipate in vacuum, but if you are close enough to be affected by the explosion then you will hear it to some degree.

    In theory a special ion speaker could let you hear sound in space by the ion waves or compressions hitting the outside of your space helmet. Since sound would be utilizing something that can travel in a vacume.

  • @BrookNBones
    @BrookNBones 7 років тому

    actually in space if an explosion occurs the pressure wave created by the explosion and the gases it puts off from the rapid combustion would create sound until the gas (air) particles distribute far enough apart from one another that there would be no more force behind them. So the close you are to the explosion the more likely you are to hear it. within a certain level of reason for survivability anyway. Cody with Cody's lab has already done test in a vacuum chamber with explosives that the results supported that hypothesis.

  • @Chris-yy7qc
    @Chris-yy7qc 7 років тому

    Well I think the reason why the speaker stopped working when you werent even at full vacuum is because the speaker chassis has got a sealed chamber behind it. (Doesnt look like bass reflex) Once the pressure inside the vacuum box is dropping, the air trapped behind the speaker is pushing it out. Once the maximum travel of the speakers membrane is reached, its not able to move anymore. So no sound is emitted.
    The test wouldve been much better with just a speaker chassis (without any enclosure) inside the box.

  • @n0ukf
    @n0ukf 7 років тому

    any connection between the speaker and box (tape, string, etc) would transfer sound from the speaker. Also, I'm sure you didn't reach a perfect vacuum, so there was still some micro-atmosphere in there to transfer a little sound.

  • @khand5877

    Got into a "debate" with a Moon Landing denier and they said that one of the reasons they didn't believe we landed on the moon was that they thought radio waves couldn't travel through a vacuum. I was hoping you could turn the speaker on and off to prove it could.

  • @turtle_dude7942
    @turtle_dude7942 7 років тому

    actually you can hear explosions in space, but only within the blast radius because that is wear all of the gas will be and without gas you will have no sound because the sound waves have nothing to bounce off of, so yes you can actually hear explosions in space

  • @VokunVulonPrivate
    @VokunVulonPrivate 7 років тому +1

    I joined in on a comment rant on this sorta subject a while ago, what about an explosion? It would let out gasses that would in theory carry those sound waves until the gas had dissipated, it would only take a small amount of this explosive pressure wave to reach the hull of your ship or even just the spacesuit, in turn sending the vibrations thru the surface and into the pressurized environment inside, thus if in an enclosed environment and the sound was from an explosion, you would be able to hear it, right?

    • @TheActionLab
      @TheActionLab  7 років тому

      Hi checkout my pinned comment above about this. If you are even a few meters away, the pressure will drop low enough that you still would hear no sound, but you would "hear" the pressure wave

  • @ppcow1239
    @ppcow1239 7 років тому

    Sound travels in waves like light or heat does, but unlike them, sound travels by making molecules vibrate. So, in order for sound to travel, there has to be something with molecules for it to travel through. On Earth, sound travels in your ears by vibrating air molecules. In space, the large empty areas between stars and planets, and there are no molecules to vibrate. There is no sound there. So in your video thats why it had very very little noise.

  • @tristanmoller9498

    Sound is basicly waves traveling in the air like waves of water cross the ocean. In a complete vacuum you would hear nothing because there is no air for the sound to travel in. Its like expecting waves when you just removed all of water ice clouds ect from the earth.

    Could you possibly build somewhat like a pressure chamber? I mean, where the pressure is being increased instead of decreased?

  • @Samsam-ku8dr
    @Samsam-ku8dr 7 років тому

    the reason u couldn't hear it is because the vacuum pressure stops your speaker from vibrating up and down not because u need air to hear sounds, true that sound travels longer and louder in normal atmosphere but it can also be heard lightly through magnetic vibrations, a speaker is not going to work without air, it will stall. now if it was something else like a gun shot or something like that u would hear it

  • @shackgerm4980
    @shackgerm4980 7 років тому

    You know, the answer was already pretty obvious to me. Since sound waves are mechanical waves, they need matter in order to be heard. So if it is put in a vacuum chamber, all the air/matter is taken out of the chamber, thus it results in the sounds from the speaker not being heard.

  • @cheeseycheesepuffsinc.1979
    @cheeseycheesepuffsinc.1979 7 років тому

    this gave me an idea, sound travels through air, like our voice does, when we speak through helium it makes the sound higher, so if you put a speaker in a container full of helium, would the music play higher pitched?

  • @MandeepSingh-mb8lj
    @MandeepSingh-mb8lj 5 років тому +1

    Lets assume, both a huge speaker and a human in a vacuum. If music is played on speaker, he is not able to listen music due to vacuum, but what if he touches the speaker, can he able to listen the music through music vibration? Though vibration can travel through body even in vacuum?

    what would be cool if you did the same thing but instead of putting the air back in you could put helium into the chamber then again with sulfur hexafluoride, find a way to see if you can change the pitch with simply changing the density of the gas in the chamber, I think that would be awesome.

    I don't usually comment on videos, but this is so obvious I just have to point it out, and probably someone has already. I normally don't mind the background music on when explaining something, however when your testing sound in a vacuum, it would be best if there is no background music on at all. That way now one gets confused between the background music and the solid tones that are being played. Plus its irritating when you want to hear the tone go away in the vacuum but you have the background music playing, and it's difficult to discern. If possible please edit this video without the background music, at least while the vacuum pump is running, and when the air is let back in.
