Which of the following statements BEST describes the interaction of a longitudinal sound wave and matter? A. Sound waves can transfer energy only through open space or a vacuum.
B. Sound waves can travel through a vacuum and are slowed down by matter.
C. Sound waves transfer energy by carrying matter perpendicular to the direction of the wave.
D. Sound waves transfer energy from particle to particle in the matter, but the matter is not carried along with the wave.
