Sound waves travel faster in humid air because humidity would decrease the density of the air. As density decreases then speed of sound would increase as speed is given as c = ./ P/d
./ is the square root symbol. d is the density and P the pressure. Pressure change wont change the speed of sound since P/d remains constant.

Do sound waves travel faster threw liquid or solid?
They travel faster through solids
Why do sound waves travel faster in steel than in air or water?
steel sound waves always go faster in solids
Why do radio waves travel faster than the sound wave?
Radio waves are just low frequency light waves. They travel at the speed of light, much faster than sound waves which are just changes in pressure traveling in waves
What waves travel faster sound or light?
Light waves travel faster than sound waves.
