Yes. And very rapidly as well, depending on the coefficient of elasticity. Metals, for example, tend to be highly elastic. Sound waves travel well through metal.

Sound wave travel the fastest with what material?
Sound travels fastest through iron and sound travels slowest through air!
Do sound waves travel through space?
Not unless there's some material matter in the space.
Does the temperature of liquid or solid affects the speed of sound traveling through them?
yes, if the state of matter is heated or cooled, the distance between the molecules in that object are either spread out or pulled together; therefore, the sound waves will travel quicker through heated material, and slower through cooled material.
Can sound travel through oxygen?
Sound can travel through fire as it does not directly affect sound. Sound travels in waves which can pass through solid objects but this limits the distance they can go.
How can sound travel through melted chocolate?
through solids
How fast does sound travel through materials?
Every material has its elastic modulus, and the speed of sound is proportional to the square root of the elastic modulus of that material.
Sound waves can't travel through A a solid B a liquid C an elastic material D a vacuum?
Sound waves cannot travel through a vacuum because it needs a medium and a vacuum has nothing within it that can act as a medium.
What affects how sound is transmitted?
Sound can travel, more or less, through any matter, but not at all through a vacuum. The main factors that affect the speed of sound are as follows: Temperature: Hotter materials allow sound to travel faster Density: Sound travels faster in denser materials Elasticity: This means the ability for the molecules of a material to bounce back to their original positions quicky. The more elastic a material, the faster sound can travel through it.
How sound waves travel through a material?
Vibrations travel through the material, just as they would in air. How well they travel through depends on the material.
What type of material can travel through space?
Sound and Light can travel through space.
Can sound travel through vacuum tube?
Sound cannot travel through vacuum, but unless there is sufficient insulation, sound might travel through the material the tube is made of.
Does sound need to travel through material?
Sound (and vibration) are a wave system of sequential compressions and rarefactions of a material. These waves are mechanical and do need a substance through which to travel. They cannot travel through a vacuum.
Can sound travel through other kinds of material than air if so does it travel differently?
Sound can travel through all matter. The speed at which it travels depends on the density of the material.
What material is it that sound cannot travel through?
a fanny
What material does sound travel fast through?
Solids
What material does sound travel furthest through?
water
What is the material which sound waves travel through?
the 'medium'
