How do sound waves travel through water, as indicated by the keyword "sound waves travel through water" by ?

Sound waves travel through water by vibrating the water molecules, causing them to bump into each other and pass the sound energy along. This process allows the sound waves to propagate through the water medium.


What are the differences between water waves and sound waves?

Water waves are mechanical waves that transfer energy through water molecules, while sound waves are longitudinal waves that transfer energy through air molecules. Water waves require a medium (water) to travel, while sound waves can travel through solids, liquids, and gases. Sound waves travel faster through denser mediums, while water waves travel at different speeds depending on the depth of the water.
