Sound travels further in a solid medium because the atoms are closer together. less energy is dissipated. It's an amplification of sorts.
seismic wave travels faster through solid rock and slower through water, but i dont know why!
Light is the fastest thing on earth as we know it. Traveling at a astonishing speed of 186,282 miles in one second!!
When a wave passes through a substance, it gets transmitted through it. The speed of the wave changes depending on the nature of the substance.
Shear / transverse waves do not travel through liquids.
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.
sound travels the fastest through a solid perferably dimond.
Sound travels fastest through a nonporous solid medium, such as steel.
Sound waves travel fastest through solids. *Generally, sound waves travel faster as the density of the transmission medium increases.
sound would travel faster in a solid because it is a denser object for the soundwaves to travel through
Solid, then liquid, then gas.

solid
Yes. Sound travel faster through water than air n fastest through compact solid material like metal.

Sound waves need a medium to travel through - the medium may be solid, liquid, or gaseous. Electromagnetic waves (including light) can also travel through empty space.
