When the same amount of force is applied to a certain volume of air or the same volume of water, the air will travel faster because it is less dense.

How does air effect weathering?
Air affect weathering by: Their is many kind of weathering, and air is one of them. When the air move faster the air weathering will happen faster.
What happens to water molecules as heat is applied?
They move faster and faster and get further away from each other. like the air in a hot air balloon. The more heat makes the particles go further away from each other until it lifts the whole thing up. I learnt this in Yr 8 science :D
What happens to the water molecules as they start to heat up?
Heating water molecules causes them to move faster and faster. Water when cool is in a way (sticky). When heated the water molecules are moving far too quickly stick together. The heated water molecules become less dense and may stick to air molecules. Floating into and combining with the atmosphere.
How does water move from earth to air and back again?
Water moves into the air through the process of evaporation. Water moves from the air the ground by the process of raining.
Does the ice cube melt faster on water or land?
The melting rate of an ice depends on the temperature of the surrounding. If the temperature is higher in the surrounding then the ice will melt at a faster rate and if the temperature is low then it will take more time to melt. The process of heat exchange is important whether it is air or water.
What medium allows sound waves to move faster?
air, when compared to water
Will a sound wave move faster in winter?
No it will move slower. Waves move faster in warm air and slower in cold air.
Do sound waves move faster through cold or warm air?
warm air
In what medium do waves travel faster?
Waves travel faster in denser mediums. For example, sound travels faster in water than air.
Can light waves travel better in water or air?
Since air has a lower optical density than water, light waves can travel faster in air.
Why do sound waves travel faster in steel than in air or water?
steel sound waves always go faster in solids
What does water have that is greater than air which causes sound waves to travel faster in water than in air?
Bulk modulus.
Does sound travels faster through water or air?
Sound waves travel faster through denser mediums, and water is denser than air, so sound travels faster through water than air
Do Light waves travel more slowly through air and water?
It travels faster thru air
Where are radio waves faster-earth or space?
Radio waves travel with the highest speed in vacuum, and slightly slower in air. So they move slightly faster in space than on earth.
Do light waves travel faster through air than it does through water?
yes
Why do sound waves move around everyday objects whereas the bending of light is not generally observed?
its because the sound waves travel faster in air..... and also recommended the waves
