Why does sound travel qiuckest through a solid?
Sound is a mechanical wave. It requires a medium for propagation. Since the particles in a solid are close together, the sound energy is propagated way faster in solids rather than liquids and gases whose particles are not as close.
Through what do seismic waves travel fastest?
seismic wave travels faster through solid rock and slower through water, but i dont know why!
The speed of light is faster in a liquid true or false?
It travels faster in a liquid than in a gas, but it would travel faster still in a solid.
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 Defines a Solid?
A solid has atoms which are more tightly packed and has less energy than gases or liquids so they can't move that much. Liquids and gases move faster because they have more energy which comes from heat.
Why sound travel faster in solid than gases?
i dont know i was gunna ask this!!
Is LiBr a liquis solid or gas?
Solid
Is the sound travel faster in solid than gases?
Yes, it does. This is because the particles in a solid are closer together than in a gas, and the sound can therefore move more easily from one particle to the next, making the sound travel faster.
Waves travel quicker through solid gases?
Waves travel faster through denser materials. However, Electromagnetic waves travel faster through less dense materials. It travels fastest in vacuum.
Will sound travel faster in solid or air?
Much faster in a solid
How can solid rock travel faster than a car?

Does sound travel faster through a solid or water?
sound travel faster through soled because of tighter packed particles
Do sound waves travel faster threw liquid or solid?
They travel faster through solids
How does solid differ from a gas?
Gases particles move through and faster than the particles in a solid
How does solid differ from gas?
Gases particles move through and faster than the particles in a solid
Does sound travel faster through a solid luquid or gas?
Solid
Which is faster for viberating sound travel solid or liquid or gas or vacuum?
Sounds travel faster in solid materials than any other materials.
