Does sound move through a solid slowly?

Sound moves through a solid faster than anything. In order it goes, solid, liquid, and gas. So metal is faster than water is faster than air.


Will sound travel faster in solid liquid or gas?

Sound is a compression wave that travels via then vibrations of particles. If the particles are closer together then the wave (sound) moves faster. Particles are closer together in a liquid than a gas, therefore sound travels faster through liquids.


Does sound move faster through a liquid than through a solid?

Generally, sound moves faster through a solid than through a liquid. This is because the molecules of a solid are more condensed than those of a liquid. However, sound does not move faster through all solids than through all liquids.1


What does a solid turn into when its heated?

When a solid gains thermal energy, its atoms and/or molecules begin to move (vibrate) faster and faster as the temperature continues to increase. Eventually, the particles that make up the solid will gain enough thermal energy in order to separate into a liquid through melting or into a gas through sublimation.


Will a seismic wave traveling through a solid go faster or slower than a seismic wave traveling through liquid?

Seismic waves travels faster through solid rock than water because their speed depends on the density and composition of material that they pass through.Solid rock is denser than water, hence the energy from seismic waves transfer faster through solid rock than in water.

Light travel faster through solid or liquid?

Does light travel faster through liquid or solid?

Light travels faster through liquid than through solid. The speed of light in a medium is determined by the refractive index of the material, which is lower in liquid compared to solid materials.


Would a seismic wave travel faster through a solid or a liquid?

liquid


Will a seismic wave traveling through solid go faster or slower than a seismic wave traveling through liquid?

Mechanical waves (like seismic waves) will travel faster through a solid than a liquid.

Does sound travel faster through a solid liquid or gas and how?

Solid. Because it's more dense.


Will a seismic wave go faster through a liquid or a solid?

Solid, because that kind of wave goes fastest through solids

How heat moves through objects?

Heat can move through objects via conduction, convection, or radiation. In conduction, heat is transferred through direct contact between particles. Convection involves the movement of heat through fluids like liquids or gases. Radiation transfers heat through electromagnetic waves that can travel through a vacuum.

How is the speed of a wave different based on whether it is traveling through a solid a liquid or a gas?

A wave will move faster through a liquid than a gas and even faster through a solid than a liquid. This is due to that the particles are closser together in a liquid than a gas and even closer in a solid than a liquid so the wave has a tighter medium to travel through or less of a "jump" between the atoms.


Does adding more liquid to a liquid make a solid dissolve faster?

No
