Sound travels through liquid the same way it travels through air. It sets up pressure waves that travel through the water, just like they do in air. One big difference is that the speed of sound in water is much faster than in air, but the philosophy is the same.

∙ 14y agoThe same way as it travels through a gas or a solid. Sound waves are just vibrations travelling through a medium (solid; liquid; gas) and liquids such as water are just as good (actually better in this case) candidates for it as is air. This is also of course the reason there's no sound in space - there's no medium for the sound to exist as (after all - sound is a property of a medium).

What Sound travels best though solid liquid gas?
Sound travels fastest through solids.
Will sound travel faster in solid liquid or gas?
Sound is a compression wave that travels via then vibrations of particles. If the particles are closer together then the wave (sound) moves faster. Particles are closer together in a liquid than a gas, therefore sound travels faster through liquids.
Sound travels through the air or water or solids by?
sound can travel in all three media(solids liquid and gas)and travels fastest through solids.
Does sound travel through liquid or gas faster?
it travels fast in gases
Does sound travel through solid?
yes and it travels faster than liquid and gas
Do sound waves travel better through a solid liquid or a gas?
Sound travels fastest through solids because the molecules are closer together than in liquids or gases. Sound travels fastest through steel.
Does sound travel through solid liquid or gas?
It travels through all three, but at different speeds.
Air is a medium through which sound travels What are the other mediums?
Sound can travels through liquid such as water and solid such as rock and ground. Put your ear on the floor and hear the people step for the proof of sound travel through solid.
Do sounds travel faster throw liquid?
no sound travels faster through solids.
Does sound travel faster through a liquid or gas?
it travels fast in gases
Where does sound travels through?
Sound travels through waves.
Does sound slow down in liquid?
On the contrary, sound travels better through liquid, even better through solids, we only think differently because we only hear normally through air.
