However, the speed of sound varies from substance to substance. Sound travels faster in liquids and non-porous solids than it does in air. It travels about 4.3 times faster in water (1,484 m/s), and nearly 15 times as fast in iron (5,120 m/s), than in air at 20 degrees Celsius".Air at sea level is about 800 times less dense than saltwater. additionally sound waves that travel through the air and waves that travel through dense liquids and solids are different

How do sound waves effect plants?

Sound waves are waves of energy created by the vibration of a source (vibrating phone, vocal cords, etc.) that travel through a medium (air, water, solids). This means that the plant will get extra energy aside from sunlight that will make it grown at faster rates. It depends how fast those sound waves travel (frequencies) and how loud the sound waves are. Hope that answers your question!
