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.


Through what do seismic waves travel fastest?

seismic wave travels faster through solid rock and slower through water, but i dont know why!


Will sound travel faster or slower on moon than on earth?

Sound will travel slower on the moon than on Earth. This is because the moon's lack of atmosphere results in sound waves traveling at a slower pace due to the reduced medium through which they can propagate.


Do photons travel forwards or backwards through time?

Photons do not travel through time. This is due to the fact that the faster you travel through space, the slower you travel through time. In other words, if an object is standing still, it is traveling at the speed of light through time, and since a photon travels at the speed of light through space, it is not traveling through time. -- Asker here, I hope no one minds me editing in to expand on the question/answer given. Surely the answer must be more complex. If a photon does not travel through time, then that could potentially violate/invalidate causality.


A plane flying against a jet stream will travel faster than a plane traveling with a jet stream-?

It is false that a plane flying against a jet stream will travel faster than a plane traveling with a jet stream.

If a bullet is fired out of a fighter jet traveling Max speed does the bullet travel faster than if it were fired at a stand still?

No. The bullet will actually travel much slower due to wind resistance.


Is the denser the medium through which it is traveling the slower a transverse wave propagates true or false?

False. The denser the medium, the faster a transverse wave propagates. This is because denser mediums have a higher resistance to deformation, which allows the wave to travel more quickly through them.


What travels faster P waves or S waves?

S-waves are stronger, but travel slower and can only travel through solids.


Does light travel faster in glass then it does in a vacuum?

No, slower.
