Sound travels the fastest in solids.
Solids being the most denser make sound travel fastest as compared to liquids and gases which have speed of sound relatively less than solids.
Solids. Its as simple as that.
Sound travel faster in solids than in liquids, and faster in liquids than in gases. Sound travels faster in water than in the air but in solids it travels about eight times faster. Sound travels at the fastest speed in steel. In solids it travel faster in a hot surface, the particles move faster if the solid is cold its slower the movement.
Spongy materials are the most difficult for sound to travel through. Vacuum is the best acoustic insulation but it doesn't really count for the purpose of this question, since it is not a material but a lack of material.
Sound can travel through most substances but the loudness depends on the substance.
Sound travels faster as temperature increases, so there is no limit. There is an equation to determine the speed of sound at a given temperature.
Sound creates waves in a material- compression waves. These waves are transmitted through the atoms/molecules in the material to the receiver. The denser a material is, the more effectively sound may travel; this is because the sound waves are transmitted more easily through the tightly packed molecules.
no. the sound travells faster as the medium is denser. according to that fact, the sound will travel fastest in the steel.
Solids
sound travels the fastest in solids, then liquids, then gas. So it would travel through iron the fastest, then water, then air.
Sound travels fastest through iron and sound travels slowest through air!
sound would travel through solids fastest since their molecules are more closely packed,hence vibrations are easily conveyed unlike other states of matter.
Sound travels faster through solid materials. The 2nd fastest is liquids.
Sound travels through a solid fastest. This is true because the particles are tightly packed, and sound is transmitted by vibrations. Therefore, the more tightly packed the material is, the faster the vibrations are transmitted.
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.
faster in water than in air <><><> Agree. The denser the material, the faster sound travels through it.
No, but sound can travel at 4,540 m/sNo, sound travels fastest through solids.
The speed of sound is proportional to the (square root) of the stiffness of the material divided by the density.
No. Sound travels fastest through solids because the molecules are closer together than in liquids or airs. Sound travels faster through steel than any other material.
