Light travels faster through water n 1 33 than it does through glass n equals 1 5?
The speed of light in any medium is given by its speed of light in vacuum divided by the refractive index of the medium and so light will travel faster in water than in glass since refractive index of glass is greater than that of water.
Why does sound travel through glass faster than gold?
Its because gold has a greater mass than glass
Why does sound travel faster through solids than liquids or gases?
bounces of glass
Does light travel fastest in space in air in water or through glass?
Light's apparent speed is fastest definitely in a vacuum and slower in water or glass. Light in air behaves more like in a vacuum than in water or glass.
Would light travel the fastest through water glass or air?
It is not. The speed of light in any material is inversely proportional to the refractive index of that material. The refractive index of glass depends on the glass and so the speed of light varies between 156 and 204 million metres per second. By contrast, the speed of light in vacuum is nearly 300 million metres per second.Even in pure water ice, light travels at nearly 229 million metres per second. So there is no evidence whatsoever to support the question's claim of "fastest through glass".
Does light travel faster in glass then it does in a vacuum?
No, slower.
What can light travel threough?
Light is an electromagnetic radiation that travel through air, vacuum, glass, plastics, ,,,
Will sound travel faster through glass or air?
i dont know but the sound will stay more in glass

Why does sound travel through glass?
The denser the medium, the faster sound travels through it. Glass (silicon oxide) is fairly dense, and sound waves propagate through it faster than they do through air or water.
Why does sound travel through glass faster than gold?
Its because gold has a greater mass than glass

Light travels more slowly trhough glass materials?
Yes, that is correct. (Slower than in a vacuum.)
Light travels faster in glass than it does in a vacuum.?
No
