Why does sound travel faster in soilds and liguids than in gases?

The molecules are generally closer together, making them more dense and faster reacting to kinetic energy transfer than in a gas. in solids, theres a certain change in the nature of the molecular interaction that makes it so that the kinetic transfer is even faster (as the bonds between molecules is even more rigid than in a liquid).

Why do some gases travel faster than others?
some gases travel faster than other gases due to the gases density and the energy of the medium that the gase is traveling through.
Does sound travel faster in some gases?
yes, sound does travel faster in some gases, but it usally dipends on the temperature. it trave l faster in warm air.
Could sound travel faster in solids or gasses?
Sound DOES travel faster in solids than in gases. The higher the density of the medium, the faster the sound travels.
Why does sound travel faster in solids then in gases?
b/c of medium
Waves are known to travel faster through solids than they do through gases?
faster apex.....................................................................................................................
How can you prove that sound waves travel fastest through solids than liguids and gases?
Through the vibrations
What media does a compression wave travel through?
The molecules must be close enough to touch. They can travel through solids, liguids, and gases.
Why do some gases travel faster than others?
some gases travel faster than other gases due to the gases density and the energy of the medium that the gase is traveling through.
Does sound travel faster in some gases?
yes, sound does travel faster in some gases, but it usally dipends on the temperature. it trave l faster in warm air.
What canonly liquids and gases do what soilds can not?
Only liquids and gases can flow, a solid object can not flow.
Do soilds has a definite shape or volume?
Yes, it's gases and liquids that don't.

Why people use solids and not liquids or gases to build houses?
why people use soilds and not use liquids or gases to build houses
Does sound travel through liquid or gas faster?
it travels fast in gases
Will waves travel faster through gases or liquids?
liquids i have done the experiment my self
