Does sound travels faster through water or air?
Sound waves travel faster through denser mediums, and water is denser than air, so sound travels faster through water than air
Where do sound waves travel at their fastest?
Sound travel faster in solids than in liquids, and faster in liquids than in gases. Sound travels faster in water than in the air but in solids it travels about eight times faster. Sound travels at the fastest speed in steel. In solids it travel faster in a hot surface, the particles move faster if the solid is cold its slower the movement.
Do sound waves travel faster through air than solids?
No. In general, the denser the medium, the faster sound travels.
At which temperature in water does sound travel the fastest?
Sound travels faster as temperature increases, so there is no limit. There is an equation to determine the speed of sound at a given temperature.
Does sound travel faster through water than it does through air?
Speed of sound in water is approximately 1500 meters per second. ( The exact speed depends on the depth of water and its density) and the speed of sound in air is approximately 340 meters per second. So sound is almost 4.4 times faster in water than in air.
Does sound travel fastest in metal?
sound travels faster in solids. sound travels faster in metals like steel
What travels faster than light waves and sound waves?
Light travels faster than sound ... about 875,000 times faster. Nothing travels faster than light.
Which travels faster noise or lightning?
lightning travels faster. Light is faster than sound.
Sound travels fastest in what?
sound travels fastest in solid (about 8x faster)
Can a sound be faster than a other sound?
yes, sound travels faster in liquids and solids than in gases e.g. faster in water than through air. The denser the solid, the faster the sound travels.
Which medium does sound travel fastest in?
Sound travels faster in solids than it does in liquids. thus, sound travels faster in liquids than it does in solids
What travels faster the sound?
light
What type of air does sound travel faster in?
Sound travels faster in moist air
Where is the sound travels faster?
Faster in water than in air.
What effect does water have on sound?
Sound travels faster in water.
Will sound travel faster in solid liquid or gas?
Sound is a compression wave that travels via then vibrations of particles. If the particles are closer together then the wave (sound) moves faster. Particles are closer together in a liquid than a gas, therefore sound travels faster through liquids.
What travels faster light or sound?
Light travels at approximately 3x108m/s whilst sound travels only at 343m/s. So which do you think is the faster one?
