The speed of sound is determined by what it travels through. It travels faster through dense mediums, such as liquids, and doesn't travel at all in space, because there are no molecules to move sound waves along.
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.
Light is faster than sound. Light travels through empty space at a speed of about 186,282 miles per second (299,792 kilometers per second), whereas sound travels through air at about 1,125 feet per second (343 meters per second).
Light travels faster through anything than sound does.Light also travels through a few things that sound can't.Light is around 150,000 times as fast.
No. The denser the material, the faster sound moves through it.
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.
Faster.
yes, sound travels faster in liquids and solids than in gases e.g. faster in water than through air. The denser the solid, the faster the sound travels.

sound travels faster through water than air.
Sound travels faster through solid materials. The 2nd fastest is liquids.
Sound travels faster through air. Though sound travels farther through solid objects (vibrations), it is faster when traveling through air waves.
Sound travels faster in iron. Usually sound travels faster in media with higher density. Also presence of lattice makes difference too.
Sound speed is changing with medium. Metal medium has high speedsfor sound.
yeah sound travels fastest through solids , than that through liquids and slowest in air and does not travel through Vaccum
window, because sound travels fastest through solids, liquids second, and gases last.
Sound travels faster through wood than through water. In wood, sound travels at around 3300 meters per second, while in water it travels at around 1500 meters per second.
no sound travels faster through solids.
