Yes i guess sound waves travel faster through wood than in water. Because molecules are tightly packed in wood(solid) than in water(liquid).

Light waves travel faster through air than through water because air has a lower refractive index than water. This means that light waves experience less bending (refraction) in air compared to water, allowing them to move faster.
they travel faster. Light waves travel more QUICKLY as they enter water. ^^ whoever done this;; thanks! i really needed the answer....
Waves travel faster through denser materials. However, Electromagnetic waves travel faster through less dense materials. It travels fastest in vacuum.
Water waves are mechanical waves that transfer energy through water molecules, while sound waves are longitudinal waves that transfer energy through air molecules. Water waves require a medium (water) to travel, while sound waves can travel through solids, liquids, and gases. Sound waves travel faster through denser mediums, while water waves travel at different speeds depending on the depth of the water.
Sound travels faster through water than through air because water is denser and provides more molecules for sound waves to travel through, leading to a faster transmission of sound.
Sound waves can travel through fluids, it is just that due to the physical proporties of water, sound waves are dampened much faster than they would be in gas.
Seismic waves travels faster through solid rock than water because their speed depends on the density and composition of material that they pass through.Solid rock is denser than water, hence the energy from seismic waves transfer faster through solid rock than in water.
Sound waves travel faster through denser media, like solids, because the molecules are closer together, making it easier to pass the sound from molecule to molecule. Light and other electromagnetic waves travel faster through less dense media, and they travel fastest through a vacuum.
Sound travels faster through warmer water because warm water molecules are more spread out, allowing sound waves to travel more quickly. Cold water, with its denser and more closely packed molecules, slows down the transmission of sound waves.
Sound travels faster in water than in ice or steam. This is because sound waves travel faster through denser materials, and water is denser than both ice and steam.
