P waves can travel through gas, solids, and liquids and Swaves can only travel through solids.
P-waves
Sound is energy of mechanical vibration transferred through a medium. Commonly the medium is air, but solids, liquids and gasses all transmit sound. Indeed, sound travels faster through liquid and solids than through gas. Sound does not propagate through a vacuum.
Shear waves travel through solids. They cannot travel through liquids and gasses (unlike compressive waves) and they can't travel through a vacuum (unlike electromagnetic waves).
there is no specific wave they all travel faster through water but scientifically speaking sesmic waves do i belive also The speed of sound depends on the medium in which it is transported. The speed of sound is slow in gases, like in air. The speed of sound is faster in liquids, like in water. The speed of sound is fastest in solids, like in metal.
Yes, and faster through solids than liquids.
Sound waves, being longitudinal in nature, travels faster in liquids and solids.
bounces of glass
Yes, sound actually travels faster through solids then liquids or gases.
The higher the density, the faster the sound. Solids, then liquids, then gasses.
Sound travels through solids faster than other states of matter because most solids are denser than liquids. Sound waves travel faster through denser media than through less dense media. and the solids have high elasticity.. sound travel faster in elastic bodies
Seismic waves travel through solids, liquids, and gases.
Yes, sound can travel through most mediums including solids and liquids. However, it cannot travel through a vacuum.
Sound travels faster in solids than it does in liquids. thus, sound travels faster in liquids than it does in solids
Through solids fastest, then liquids, then a gas.
Sound waves travel faster through denser media, like solids, because the molecules are closer together, making it easier to pass the sound from molecule to molecule. Light and other electromagnetic waves travel faster through less dense media, and they travel fastest through a vacuum.
S-waves cannot travel through liquids, but they can travel through solids and gases. P-waves can travel through solids, liquids and gases. Hope this helped! :D
