What is the difference of the transmission of sounds through air with ex transmission in solid liquid and vacuum?

Sound waves travel fastest through air because the molecules are spread out the most. They travel slowest through solid because the molecules are very tightly packed together. They do not travel through a vacuum at all.

What is A periodic disturbance in a solid liquid or gas as energy is transmitted through the medium?
That sounds like the description of a wave.
Sound waves travel through gas liquid and solids?
yes it travels through all three medium. infact sound will travle much faster through liquid and solid. remember how they show whale sounds in nature documentries??
What is the Difference between pleasant and unpleasant sounds?
Pleasant sounds are nice to hear and unpleasant sounds are not nice to hear.
What is Frequency of sounds?
The frequency of a sound wave is the number of oscillations passing a given point in 1 second. One oscillation per second = one Hz (Hertz). The frequency of a sound wave determines the pitch of the sound. The higher the frequency (more osculations: the higher the pitch. The normal human can detect sounds within the frequency range of 20 -- 20,000 Hz.Related Information:Sound is the result of a series of oscillating, longitudinal, mechanical waves of pressure (vibrations) traveling through a transmission medium. Sound waves can not travel in or through a vacuum. They require a transmission medium (some material that is at least slightly compressible) in order to travel. Without a transmission medium, there is no sound. That's the reason space is so quiet.Sound waves can be transmitted through a: gas (like air), liquid (such as water), or solid (like a steel rod or a a drumstick).
Through which medium will sound move fastest?
Contrary to light, sound travels faster through a denser medium than a less-dense medium, meaning it will travel much faster in a solid than a liquid, and faster in a liquid than a solid. This is also why the infamous "If you scream in space, nobody can hear you." holds (some) truth: There isn't enough particles for sounds waves to bounce off of, so it dissipates.
Do sounds travel faster throw liquid?
no sound travels faster through solids.
How does sound move through a liquid?
If I'm not mistaken all sounds move in waves.
Should I be concerned that a pink liquid is leaking from a Toyota Rav?
Sounds like automatic transmission fluid. I would be concerned if it was mine.
What does a broadcast transmission do?
A broadcast transmission transfers radio waves through the air which are then picked up by an antenna and converted into either sounds or picture images.
What is A periodic disturbance in a solid liquid or gas as energy is transmitted through the medium?
That sounds like the description of a wave.
What is the difference between fjords and sounds?
Fjords are formed depressions near the sea, that have been scoured by glaciers. Sounds are formed from running liquid water.
Sound waves travel through gas liquid and solids?
yes it travels through all three medium. infact sound will travle much faster through liquid and solid. remember how they show whale sounds in nature documentries??
What is the difference between high sounds and low sounds?
pitch.
What are three things that can happen to wave as it moves through different materials?
Seismic waves change speed as they travel through Earth because of the four different layers. The layers differ, changing from a thin crust, to a rocky mantle, a liquid outer core, and finally a solid metallic core. Each of the layers affect the speed of seismic waves due to the differences in their makeup. They move faster through the crust and mantle than they do through the cores. In fact, "S" waves are unable to move through the liquid outer core at all.
What would cause a transmission to not shift into gear and the speedometer to raise and lower?
Sounds like a grenaded transmission

Pleasant sounds are nice to hear and unpleasant sounds are not nice to hear.
