What is the most resonant metal that would best conduct sound yet remain strong?

Steel


What metals conduct sound?

Metals such as aluminum, copper, and steel are known for their ability to conduct sound well due to their high density and stiffness properties. These metals are commonly used in musical instruments like brass instruments, guitar strings, and drum cymbals to produce and transmit sound effectively.


Does steel conduct heat?

yes


What is the speed of sound in stainless steel?

Sound velocity in steel - 5960 m/s Sound velocity in Stainless steel - 5760 m/s


Is stainless steel a electrical and heat conduct?

Yes


Does copper wire conduct sound?

Since sound is the effect of vibrations in a media, copper can definitely conduct sound. However, as a wire it would have a certain damping factor, much a like spring, that would absorb the energy of sound vibrations. So a sheet of copper would conduct sound, but a thin wire would not.


Which travels more swiftly sound or steel?

Sound


Is steel a good conductor of heat and electricity?

Yes. Steel has mobile electrons to conduct electricity and heat.


How does sound travels faster in steel?

Sound travels faster in steel compared to air because steel is denser and has a higher elasticity than air. These properties allow sound waves to propagate more quickly through steel, resulting in a higher speed of sound.


What metals that conduct electricity are brittle?

Carbon Steel - Martensite


How does the speed of sound in steel compare with the speed of sound in air?

The speed of sound in steel is much faster than in air. In general, sound travels at about 5,960 m/s in steel, while it travels at about 343 m/s in air at room temperature. The higher density and stiffness of steel allow sound waves to propagate more quickly through it compared to the lighter and less dense air.


Can sound shatter break or crack steel?

yes. it depends on the intensity of the sound
