Speed of sounds depends on the type of medium and temperature of the medium .
As we know that sound travels fastest in solid medium than any other medium, sound would probably travel faster through an iron than the body of water.
the molecules in water are farther apart while in a solid body they are very closely packed. When a sound wave hits a solid body the molecules vibrate and transfer the vibrations of the wave to the next molecule. in this way the sound wave doesn't need to travel that much a distance and can easily travel faster in a solid body.
while in a liquid the molecules are farther apart and the wave has to cover a more large distance to be transmitted through the liquid.
so in this way the sound has more speed through solid (iron) than liquid (water).
The exact speed of sound in iron is 5130 meters per second..
Whereas, the speed of sound in water at 25 degree Celsius is 1493 meters per second.
However, the speed of sound in all solids are not faster than in all liquids.
Sound travels through air the fastest since air has the least amount of particles(thus having the most space for the sound to travel) in it than wood and juice. The particles of wood are tightly packed together, meaning that there is hardly any space for the sound to pass through. The particles in the juice (and any liquid) roll over each other, thus having some space for sound to pass through.
sound
Due to the fact that sound does not travel in a vacuum, I would say that it is definitely not in a vacuum. But between oxygen and a liquid comes down to how sound is propagated. Sound is propagated by particles transferring energy by collision (which is why it cannot travel through a vacuum, no particles). Therefore, more particles you have in a given volume, the more likely collisions will happen, thus propagating the wave faster. Thus, sound would travel faster in a liquid due to its higher density.
yes it can yes it can
NO they can not travel faster than sound in thunder and lightning
I would say the water is quicker Sound travels fastest through more dense materials. Oil is more is less dense than water, meaning that sound travels faster through water than oil.
sound travels faster through water than air.
sound travels faster through steel
sound would travel faster in a solid because it is a denser object for the soundwaves to travel through
Light travels much faster than sound, through wood.
sound travel faster through soled because of tighter packed particles
Through metals
Sound travels faster through solids because, molecules in solids are much closer together so this allows sound waves to travel faster.
They travel faster through solids
sound travels faster through a solid because the particles are right next to each other and so it is faster to vibrate whereas air particles are further apart and take longer to travel. So yes it would travel through the ground faster than air.
Sound travels faster through solid materials. The 2nd fastest is liquids.
Solids.
sound travels faster through a solid than through air
