Light is the fastest thing on earth as we know it. Traveling at a astonishing speed of 186,282 miles in one second!!
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.
The reason is that the particles of a gas move around fastest.
Solid in solid: metal alloys. Liquid in liquid: vinegar dissolving in water. Gas in gas: air. Solid in liquid: salt dissolving in water. Liquid in solid: mercury absorbed by gold. Gas in liquid: carbon dioxide dissolving in soda. Solid in gas: smoke particles in air. Liquid in gas: water vapor in air. Gas in solid: hydrogen absorbed by palladium.
a feather is a solid
* solid to liquid: melting* liquid to solid: freezing* liquid to gas: vaporization* gas to liquid: liquefaction* solid to gas: sublimation* gas to solid: deposition
depending on the nature of the solid liquid or gas. usually gas the fastest followed by liquid than solid.
yes and it travels faster than liquid and gas
Sound waves travel fastest through solids. *Generally, sound waves travel faster as the density of the transmission medium increases.
Sound will travel fastest through a solid because the molecules in a solid are closer together, allowing for faster transmission of sound waves. Liquids and gases have molecules that are more spread out, hindering the speed at which sound can travel through them.
Waves travel fastest in solids, such as metals and dense materials, because particles in solids are closer together and can transmit energy quickly through vibrations. This is why seismic waves generated by earthquakes travel fastest through the Earth's solid layers.
Density of the medium.
It becomes a liquid. solid, liquid, and gas are relative terms defining the movement of molecules, solid moves slow, liquid faster, and gas the fastest. molecules move constantly.
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.
The correct order of matter from slowest to fastest that molecules or particles move is: solid, liquid, gas. In a solid, particles are tightly packed and have the least amount of movement. In a liquid, particles have more freedom to move around. In a gas, particles have the most kinetic energy and move the fastest.
A medium. Gas, liquid or solid. It can't travel in a vacuum.
sound can travel past in solid because the molecules of solid is tightly closed and next liquid the molecules of liquid not so far away to each other and the slower is gas but it can travel longer than solid and liquid because the molecules in gas are far way and can move freely that can travel longer...
