Sound is a vibration that passes through matter. Sound is capable of traveling through virtually any type of matter, although some types allow sound to travel further or faster. Rock, however, allows sound to travel much more quickly than air does. In fact, elephants communicate with each other from miles away by sending very low pitch rumbling sounds through their feet and into the ground, and then, using their feet, they can detect sounds coming from other elephants.
