How can a solid rock travel faster than a car
Mechanical waves (like seismic waves) will travel faster through a solid than a liquid.
Light travels faster through liquid than through solid. The speed of light in a medium is determined by the refractive index of the material, which is lower in liquid compared to solid materials.
No, neutrinos cannot travel faster than light.
Light travels faster in air than in solid and liquid because the particles in solid and liquid mediums are closer together, which results in more frequent collisions and absorptions by the particles. This causes light to slow down as it travels through these denser mediums. In contrast, air has fewer particles and more space between them, allowing light to travel faster with fewer collisions.
Sound travels fastest in solids because the particles are close together, allowing for quicker transfer of energy through vibrations. In liquids, sound travels slower than in solids but faster than in gases due to the density of the medium. Sound cannot travel through a vacuum because it requires a medium to propagate.
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.
Seismic waves travel faster through solid rock than through water because solid rocks have higher density and stronger elastic properties, which allow the waves to propagate more efficiently. In contrast, water has lower density and weaker elastic properties, which result in slower wave propagation.

yes
It travels faster through a solid then air for some odd reason............
The denser the faster. ie: it will travel faster through quartz than sandstone.
The mantle of course.....because sound waves travel through liquid like surfaces better than solid rock.

Yes, it does. This is because the particles in a solid are closer together than in a gas, and the sound can therefore move more easily from one particle to the next, making the sound travel faster.
Sound travels faster through a solid than through a vacuum. In a solid, sound waves propagate through the material's molecules, leading to faster transmission. In a vacuum, there are no molecules to transmit sound, so it cannot travel at all.
i dont know i was gunna ask this!!
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.
