Does sound travel through solid?

yes and it travels faster than liquid and gas


Do sound waves travel better through a solid liquid or a gas?

Sound travels fastest through solids because the molecules are closer together than in liquids or gases. Sound travels fastest through steel.


Does sound travel in a liquid?

Yes sound can travel in liquid, its speed is lesser than that in solid and more than that of gas.


How fast will sound travel through a solid liquid and gas in meters per second?

depending on the nature of the solid liquid or gas. usually gas the fastest followed by liquid than solid.


Will sound travel faster in solid liquid or gas?

Sound is a compression wave that travels via then vibrations of particles. If the particles are closer together then the wave (sound) moves faster. Particles are closer together in a liquid than a gas, therefore sound travels faster through liquids.


What material does sound travel the fastest?

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.


Sound waves travel fastest in what?

Sound waves travel fastest in solids because the particles are closer together and can transfer the vibrations more quickly than in liquids or gases.


Should sound travel best on liquid or a gas?

If by best you mean fastest and/or furthest, than sound travels better through liquid. This is because the speed (and distance) of sound is dependent on the density of the medium it is traveling through. Since sound waves travel better with compression, they move faster in more solid mediums because of the mediums' tightly packed molecules.


Do sound waves travel farther in liquid than in gas?

Yes.


What specific solid does sound travel through the fastest?

The denser the faster. ie: it will travel faster through quartz than sandstone.


Which travels fastest through a medium a photon atom sound or electron?

A photon travels fastest through a medium, followed by sound, then electrons. Photons travel at the speed of light in a vacuum, which is faster than the speed of sound or electrons in a medium. Sound travels at a much slower speed than light, while electrons generally move at speeds that are significantly slower than both photons and sound waves.


How can you prove that sound waves travel fastest through solids than liguids and gases?

Through the vibrations
