Density of the medium.
yes and it travels faster than liquid and gas
Sound travels fastest through solids because the molecules are closer together than in liquids or gases. Sound travels fastest through steel.
Yes sound can travel in liquid, its speed is lesser than that in solid and more than that of gas.
depending on the nature of the solid liquid or gas. usually gas the fastest followed by liquid than solid.
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.
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 solids because the particles are closer together and can transfer the vibrations more quickly than in liquids or gases.
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.
Yes.
The denser the faster. ie: it will travel faster through quartz than sandstone.
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.
