What matter does sound travel slow in?
Sound travels slow in gas because the molecules have space to move in so when one molecule vibrates the others can't because they are not close to eachother.
What types of matter does sound travel through?
Sound travels through all matter but some materials either absorb sound, reflect sound, or just slow sound down.
What eventually happens to a sound wave traveling through the air?
particles in the air slow it down and cause it to stop eventually
What happens to energy particles when they are frozen?
the particles move slow
How do particles behave when freezing?
when freezing, particles moves slow with out stopping.
A sound wave moves from a medium where particles of matter are closely packed to a medium where particles of matter are further apart How do you expect the sound wave to travel differently?
The wave will move faster, increasing its speed.
Which among materials does sound travel slowest 1 air 2 glass 3 water 4 wood?
Air because sound travels fastest in solids, medium in liquids, and slow in gases
If a medium has a lot of elasticity will the sound travel slow in it?
No. Faster
Why does sound in air is very slow compared to that in water?
Sound travels faster the closer the particles are. Denser material has faster sound.
Why does sound travel faster through hot air than cold air?
Hot air is less dense so there are less interactions to slow the transmission, and less 'inertia' of particles.
What type of waves travel through liquids fastest?
there is no specific wave they all travel faster through water but scientifically speaking sesmic waves do i belive also The speed of sound depends on the medium in which it is transported. The speed of sound is slow in gases, like in air. The speed of sound is faster in liquids, like in water. The speed of sound is fastest in solids, like in metal.

What causes particles to slow down and contract?
what causes particles to slow down and contract
How does removing heat from a material change the motion of it's particles?
the particles slow down. hope this helps! :)
What is the effect of medium on sound travel?
The thicker and denser the medium, the slower sound will travel through it. The density of the medium matters because the denser the substance is, the more material the sound has to vibrate per inch it travels through the substance. This forces it to slow down.
