if you have concreat drivway then you can do it. you lay on the ground and put your ear to the ground. get another person 100 ft away with the hammer. if he taps it and you can hear it first through the concreat. have fun!

The speed of sound traveling thruogh steel is much more than the speed traveling through air?
False
How does solid affects the speed of sound?
The speed of sound varies, depending on what material it goes through.
How does the speed of sound in air compare to the speed of sound in solid?
The speed of sound in a solid is faster than the speed of sound in air.
The speed of sound through oxygen at 0 and Acirc and degC is 316 meters per second. The speed of sound through solid copper is 5010 meters per second.?
No. The speed of sound in copper is well below that.
Does the temperature of liquid or solid affects the speed of sound traveling through them?
yes, if the state of matter is heated or cooled, the distance between the molecules in that object are either spread out or pulled together; therefore, the sound waves will travel quicker through heated material, and slower through cooled material.
When traveling from air to a solid what would you expect a sound wave to do?
Speed up
How fast is sound energy?
It depends on the substance the sound is traveling through. If the sound is traveling through air, it is usually about 800km/h. If it is traveling through water, the speed is about 4000km/h. If it is traveling through cosmos, its speed is 0km/h.
The speed of sound, like all waves, depends on the ____ through which it travels?
Sound travels at different speeds depending on what it is traveling through. Of the three mediums (gas, liquid, and solid) sound waves travel the slowest through gases, faster through liquids, and fastest through solids. Temperature also affects the speed of sound.
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.
The speed of sound traveling thruogh steel is much more than the speed traveling through air?
False
How does solid affects the speed of sound?
The speed of sound varies, depending on what material it goes through.
Does sound travels faster downwind than upwind?
Sound travels faster downwind. The speed at which sound travels is relative to the medium it is moving through. When sound is traveling upwind, you subtract the wind speed from the speed of sound. When it is traveling down wind you add the wind speed.
WHAT IS The speed of sound through solid?
The speed of sound is the fastest through a solid. You can calulate the speed by the formula distance and time. It is the fastest through a solid because the molecules are closer together than the other states of matter, so the reaction time is shorter.
What is speed of sound through a solid medium?
It depends on the medium.
The speed of sound is greater through a solid than through a gas because the molecules in a solid are?
The speed of sound is greater in solids. This is because the molecules in solids are closely packed. This allows sound to move faster.
How does the speed of sound in air compare to the speed of sound in solid?
The speed of sound in a solid is faster than the speed of sound in air.
What is the speed of sound traveling through the air at room temperature?
In dry air, at 20°C, the speed of sound is 343 meters/second.
