That is because there are different kinds of glass and wood whose structures are different. As a result sound can travel faster through some types of glass than other types, and similarly with wood.

What is glass tubing and how it is used?

Glass tubing is exactly what it sounds like -- a tube made of glass. Glass tubing comes in all shapes in sizes, with tube diameters or just a millimeter or less up to very large tubes. It can be used for a number of things. I can be used to carry both liquid and gasses. With a triangular file, it is possible to break glass tubing into smaller pieces. Using a hot flame from a Bunsen burner, it is possible to bend glass tubing into other shapes.See the Web Links to the left for more information about how to use glass tubing.
