-- A strobe light can display the mechanical vibrations in a material that generates or responds to sound, such as a loudspeaker cone, a tuning fork, or a guitar string.
-- An oscilloscope can display a graph of sound vibrations, if they're first intercepted and converted to an electrical signal by means of an appropriate transducer, such as a microphone.

What are sound waves and how do they travel?
Sound waves are mechanical waves. So it needs badly a material medium. Air is one such medium. Through this medium sound gets traversed in form of longitudinal waves and not in transverse mode. Even the medium is water or even metal it has to traverse only in longitudinal mode. But in strings waves could be passed both longitudinally and transversely. Using Meld(e)'s string apparatus stationary waves are produced.
Does sound produce waves?
Yes sound does produce waves. These special waves are called sound waves.
Does a soft sound have tall waves?
No, soft sound waves have short waves. Loud sound waves are the ones that have tall waves.
Why are sound waves are described as pressure waves?
Sound waves are described as pressure waves because waves produces pressure by which sound is produces
Bats can sense obstacles because they produce 1. supersonic sound waves 2. ultrasonic sound waves 3.infrasonic sound waves 4. micro Sound waves?
ultrasonic sound waves
Two pieces of apparatus you need to make pictures of sound waves?
donit know

Which type of waves are used for night vision apparatus?
Infra-red waves are used in night vision apparatus.

How would you construct an acoustical Michelson interferometer to measure sound wavelengths?
The Michelson device operates on Light waves. It is not a sound apparatus. One cannot use a telescope to analyze sounds, right?
