When does Sound travels fastest through matter when it is warm cold or not moving?
It depends... It's well-known that sound travels faster through denser (cold air has higher density then warm) media. So if you have a situation when sound travels through either cold or warm air. The speed of the sound will higher in the cold air. From other side if you have air which of course possesses certain temperature which is moving the sound speed will depend on both temperature and the vector of velocity (direction where it is blowing and and value how much it's blowing).
Is the speed of sound in cork greater than speed of sound in water?
No. The denser the material, the faster sound moves through it.
Sound travels faster through what?
The speed of sound is determined by what it travels through. It travels faster through dense mediums, such as liquids, and doesn't travel at all in space, because there are no molecules to move sound waves along.
Why is the speed of sound greater for stone than water or air?
Sound can travel better through denser objects, so since stone is denser than water and air, sound can travel faster through it.
What is wavelength of 512 hertz sound wave that travels 100 meters through air at STP?
The wavelength is about 67 centimeters, regardless of how far it travels.
Does sound travel faster through a solid block of metal or through air?
Sound travels faster through air. Though sound travels farther through solid objects (vibrations), it is faster when traveling through air waves.
Is sound louder and clearer when it travels through water?
No,sound is louder and clearer when it travels through air.
Does sound travels through air?
We are in air, and we can hear each other. Thus, sound can travel in air.Yes. A sound wave can travel through air (gases), liquids, and solids.
Can sound travel through air and evidence?
Sound travels through air. Experiment: Listen. Result: Do you hear anything? That sound has traveled through air.
How sound travel through air?
Sound travels because of the sound waves.
What is the mediam through which the sound travels in drum?
When you hit a drum the skin vibrates creating a sound wave which travels through the air.
Would sound travel faster through water or through air?
sound travels faster through water than air.
How does sound travel through the air?
it travels because there are sound waves in the air and they vibrate in your ear.
Does sound travel faster through a tree or air?
Air sound travels slower when going through a solid object
Does sound travel faster through water than air?
yeah sound travels fastest through solids , than that through liquids and slowest in air and does not travel through Vaccum
Does sound travel faster or slower through a solid than through air?
sound travels faster through a solid than through air
Can sound travel faster in air?
sound travels so fast because it feels like it
