If by best you mean fastest and/or furthest, than sound travels better through liquid. This is because the speed (and distance) of sound is dependent on the density of the medium it is traveling through. Since sound waves travel better with compression, they move faster in more solid mediums because of the mediums' tightly packed molecules.

What are the materials needed for this project Does sound travel best through solid liquid or gas?

i think you need a solid liquid and gas first to do this project


Why does sound travel fastest through a sold then a liquid and a gas?

That's because sound is a compression wave. It needs a medium to travel through. The best mediums are dense, like metal and concrete. Liquids are okay. Gasses are the worst. Sound will not travel in space because there's no medium for sound to travel through.


Do sound waves travel best through air?

Surprisingly no. Air is a gas which means that the molecules are far apart. Even a liquid is better that air for sound to travel through because the molecules are closer together. But, a solid is the best for a sound to travel through. This is because the molecules are very close together so the vibration is transferred much quicker though the material.


What medium does sound travel through the best?

solid


Where does sound travel the best?

Sound travels the fastest through non-porous solids.


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.


What surface does sound travel through best?

It travels best through solids


Does sound travel best through solidsliquidsor gases?

liquids.


Sound waves from a radio generally travel in what medium?

Sound waves from a radio typically travel through the air as it is a medium that allows for the propagation of sound waves. Sound waves are generated by the radio transmitter and then travel through the air as vibrations in the form of pressure waves to reach the receiver.


Why does sound travel best through a solid?

the matter inside is bunched together so sound travels best through a solid.


What material conducts sound the best?

The best type of material that conducts sound the best would be any solid. Only because of the sound that hit the compacted atoms and it would travel the fastest.


What surfaces does sound travel through?

It travels best through solids
