Yes sound carries well in water, if you were to submerge your self in a lake for example you would hear the sounds of motor boats engines. In the sea a host of sounds can be heard. For me the most thrilling sound to hear was the sound of a pod of whales.

∙ 16y agoSound can be heard in any medium that can transmit it, such as air, water, or solids. In order for sound to be heard, a medium is required for the sound waves to travel through and reach our ears.
Yes, sound can be heard underwater. The speed of sound in water is faster than in air, and it travels further due to water's denser molecular structure. Marine life and human divers use sound for communication and navigation beneath the surface.
A conductor of sound (e.g. - air, water). Also, a receiver of sound (e.g. - an ear)
'The sound of the bells were heard' is grammatically correct.
Sound energy is the form of energy that can be heard. Sound energy is produced by vibrations that travel through a medium, such as air or water, and can be perceived by our ears.
Sound requires a medium, such as air or water, to propagate. Light, on the other hand, travels as electromagnetic waves and does not require a medium. Therefore, light does not produce sound waves that can be heard by the human ear.
what is the sound that is heard in the Fiordland?
Water flowing through the pipe creates some friction. That friction creates vibration, vibration = sound.
All types of sound - whether or not it can be heard by someone underwater is rather the question.
Sound must have matter to travel through - we are used to hearing sound that travels through air. But there is no air in outer space. We have heard sound that travels through water, but, there is no water in outer space either. In fact, outer space consists of a vacuum . . . not a floor cleaner, but a condition in which there is no matter - no air, no water, no nothing. So their is no sound transmission from the Sun. Have you heard any?
Sound cannot be heard in a vacuum because sound waves require a medium, such as air or water, to travel through. In a vacuum, there is no medium for the sound waves to propagate, so they cannot be heard.
