Question

Suppose you and your friend are on the moon. Will you be able to hear any sound produced by your friend?

Solution

  1. No, because sound waves need a medium through which they can propagate.
  2. Since there is no material medium on the moon due to the absence of an atmosphere, you cannot hear any sound on the moon.

Hence, we can say that the moon is devoid of any atmosphere, so you cannot hear any sound on the moon.
