Sound waves (pressure waves).
Sound DOES travel faster in solids than in gases. The higher the density of the medium, the faster the sound travels.
Sound travels faster through solids because, molecules in solids are much closer together so this allows sound waves to travel faster.
The higher the density, the faster the sound. Solids, then liquids, then gasses.
Sounds travels slowest in air and fastest in solids. Generally, sound travels faster through materials of higher densities.
It doesn't, sound travels slowest in air then faster in liquids then solids. Sound traveling through steel in many times faster then through air, for example. Sound travels through vibrations, and the vibrations pass through molecules until they reach your ear. If the molecules are far away it takes longer to pass the vibrations, but if they are closer together they will travel faster. Because the molecules are packed closer together in a liquid the sound travels faster through it, and even faster through solids.
Sound DOES travel faster in solids than in gases. The higher the density of the medium, the faster the sound travels.
It may seem awkward, but sound actually travels faster through solids than gasses, especially dense solids.
no
Longitudinal (also know as compression) waves travel more slowly through gasses than solids.
no sound travels faster through solids.
Sound travels faster through solids because, molecules in solids are much closer together so this allows sound waves to travel faster.
The higher the density, the faster the sound. Solids, then liquids, then gasses.
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.
Sounds travels slowest in air and fastest in solids. Generally, sound travels faster through materials of higher densities.
Light generally doesn't travel faster through solids than through gases. Sound does, but not light.
Sound waves, being longitudinal in nature, travels faster in liquids and solids.
Yes, sound actually travels faster through solids then liquids or gases.
