S waves can only pass through solids. They cannot pass through liquids (e.g. water, molten rock).

How sound travels through air and objects to the ear?
Sound travels through particles which vibrate in solids liquids or gases, which is why sound can't travel through vacuums like space.
How can liquids become gases and gases become liquids?
vaporization
Summarize the physical reasons that sound waves travel at different speeds through liquids and gases?
Sound waves travel fastest through solids, then liquids and gases. This is because sound waves requires medium in order to travel. Solid's particles are very tightly packed with each other thus sound gets more medium to travel faster. Liquid particles are less close to each other and gas is the least. Temperature also increases the speed of sound. higher the temperature, higher the speed of sound.
What travel fastest liquid gas solid?
Light is the fastest thing on earth as we know it. Traveling at a astonishing speed of 186,282 miles in one second!!
Why do liquids conduct heat better then gases?
In liquids particles are more loosely packed so heat can flow through more ease.
Why secondary waves cannot travel trough liquids?
It's not so much whether they are primary or secondary; the waves that can't travel through liquids, or gases for that matter, are transverse waves.
Which substances can heat travel through by convection?
Fluids, aka liquids and gases.
What waves travel through solids liquids and gases?
Seismic waves travel through solids, liquids, and gases.
Does radiation travel through solids liquids or gases?
Gases, then liquids, then solids.Good luck : )
Can S-wave travel through liquid?
No. S-waves (also known as secondary waves) can only travel through solids, not liquids or gases unlike the P-waves.
What can s waves not travel through?
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
Does air travel through solids liquids and gases?
Air can travel through some kinds of solids, if they are porous. Otherwise it can't. It can travel through liquids in the form of bubbles. It does not exactly travel through gases so much as mix with them.
Will waves travel faster through gases or liquids?
liquids i have done the experiment my self
Does sound travel best through solidsliquidsor gases?
liquids.
Can eletricity travel through solids and liquids and gases?
yes
Can light travel through solids liquids and gases?
Yes
Do sound waves travel best through solids liquids gases or vacuums?
Sounds can't travel through a vacuum, it requires a medium (something to travel through). It can travel through the rest but the best is gases because the particles are more spaced out, unlike solids and liquids which are more closely packed.
