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.
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.
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
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.
It is according to the nature. Generally sound travels with high speeds in metals.
Speed of sounds depends on the type of medium and temperature of the medium . As we know that sound travels fastest in solid medium than any other medium, sound would probably travel faster through an iron than the body of water. the molecules in water are farther apart while in a solid body they are very closely packed. When a sound wave hits a solid body the molecules vibrate and transfer the vibrations of the wave to the next molecule. in this way the sound wave doesn't need to travel that much a distance and can easily travel faster in a solid body. while in a liquid the molecules are farther apart and the wave has to cover a more large distance to be transmitted through the liquid. so in this way the sound has more speed through solid (iron) than liquid (water). The exact speed of sound in iron is 5130 meters per second.. Whereas, the speed of sound in water at 25 degree Celsius is 1493 meters per second. However, the speed of sound in all solids are not faster than in all liquids.
Solid. Because it's more dense.
It depends on the temperature, the elasticity, and the density.
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.
Much faster in a solid
Yes, sound travel faster in solid than in liquid b'coz the molecules of solid are closely packed. speed of sound in steel is 5100 m/s while in water is 1450 m/s.
Sound waves travel fastest through solids. *Generally, sound waves travel faster as the density of the transmission medium increases.
yes and it travels faster than liquid and gas
sound travel faster through soled because of tighter packed particles
Sound can travel in solid, liquid, and gas environments. In solids, sound moves faster than in liquids and gases due to the closer arrangement of particles. Sound cannot travel in a vacuum as there are no particles to transmit the vibrations.
Solid
Sound will usually move faster in a solid than in a liquid.
