Explain why sound travels quickest through a solid?
This is due to the particles and the density of the the object
Explain why a sound waves can travels faster in a solid than in a gas?
I believe it has something to do with the particles of a solid being closer and more tightly compacted.
Sound travels fastest in what?
sound travels fastest in solid (about 8x faster)
How does sound travel in solid liquid and in gas . explain?
Sound travels by particles (such as atoms or molecules) bumping into other particles, thus transferring the energy, in form of a sound.
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.
Which medium sound travels faster?
solid
What Sound travels best though solid liquid gas?
Sound travels fastest through solids.
In which medium does the sound travel the fastest?
sound travels the fastest through a solid perferably dimond.
How fast does a sound wave travel through a solid?
The speed of sound through a solid depends upon the density of that solid. The denser the solid, the quicker sound travels.
Sound travels the blank through a solid?
Sound travels the best through a solid. Since the molecules in a solid are closer together than in a gas or liquid the sound waves don't have to travel as far to reach the next molecule.
Why does sound travel best through a solid?
the matter inside is bunched together so sound travels best through a solid.
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.
