When you type a password in terminal it is not echoed to the screen.
Mac OS X: sudo command requires a non-blank admin password - Apple Support
When typing the user's password after the "Password:" prompt appears, you will not see anything appear in the Terminal window. Just type in the password and press Return. If the password is entered incorrectly, you will see the message "Sorry, try again" and be given another chance to enter the password correctly.
