Dense solids.
Related Information:
Sound waves travel mechanically, by transferring their energy, molecule by molecule, through a transfer medium. So, the more dense the transfer medium (molecules closer to one another), the faster sound energy is transferred.
Different perspective:
Sound travels by vibrating the particles of the medium through which it travels. So sound travels best in steel as the particles are tightly packed, through wood or water but poorly in air, and not at all in a vacuum.
What else can I help you with?
What types of materials can sound not travel through?
Spongy materials are the most difficult for sound to travel through. Vacuum is the best acoustic insulation but it doesn't really count for the purpose of this question, since it is not a material but a lack of material.
What material conducts sound the best?
The best type of material that conducts sound the best would be any solid. Only because of the sound that hit the compacted atoms and it would travel the fastest.
What surface does sound travel through best?
It travels best through solids
What medium does sound travel through the best?
solid
Which of the following would most likely transmit sound best?
A.Steel in cabinet B.Water in the ocean C.Air in your classroom D.Water in a swimming pool
What surfaces does sound travel through?
It travels best through solids
The speed of sound is fastest in what type of matter?
Sound travels fastest, and best through a solid. eg. steel
Why does sound travel best through a solid?
the matter inside is bunched together so sound travels best through a solid.
What kind of material does sound travel through best?
Sound travels best through solids because the particles in a solid are closer together compared to liquids and gases, allowing for better transmission of vibrations. Metals, such as steel and iron, are particularly good conductors of sound due to their tightly packed atomic structure.
Does sound travel best through solidsliquidsor gases?
liquids.
Do sound waves travel best through air?
Surprisingly no. Air is a gas which means that the molecules are far apart. Even a liquid is better that air for sound to travel through because the molecules are closer together. But, a solid is the best for a sound to travel through. This is because the molecules are very close together so the vibration is transferred much quicker though the material.
Where does sound travel the best?
Sound travels the fastest through non-porous solids.
