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.

Where does sound travels through?

Sound travels through a medium, which can be solid, liquid, or gas. In solids, sound waves travel the fastest, followed by liquids, and then gases. In space, where there is no medium, sound cannot travel.


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


How sound can pass through liquid?

Sound can pass through liquid by creating pressure waves that travel through the liquid molecules. These pressure waves cause the molecules to vibrate, transmitting the sound energy. The speed at which sound travels through liquid is faster than through gases but slower than through solids.


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.


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.


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.


Does sound travel through solid liquid or gas?

It travels through all three, but at different speeds.


Do sounds travel faster throw liquid?

no sound travels faster through solids.


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.
