The exact same way it travels in air or any other medium. By propagation - from one atom to the other.

However the Speed of propagation (speed of Sound) will be very different depending on the composition of the solid. It tends to speed up in a solid vs air.

What material does sound travel the fastest?

Sound travels the fastest in solids. Solids being the most denser make sound travel fastest as compared to liquids and gases which have speed of sound relatively less than solids.


Can sound travel through solids?

No.


Can sound travel through solids and liquids?

Yes, sound can travel through solids and liquids. In solids, sound travels faster because the particles are closer together, allowing for quicker transmission of vibrations. In liquids, sound travels at a slower speed compared to solids, but still more efficiently than in gases.

What solids can sound travel through?

Sound can travel through most solids, including metals, wood, glass, and stone. The speed and efficiency of sound transmission can vary depending on the material's density and elasticity. Overall, denser and more rigid solids are better conductors of sound.


Can sound travel through different materials?

Yes, sound can travel through different materials such as solids, liquids, and gases. The speed of sound varies depending on the material, with sound traveling faster through solids compared to liquids and gases due to the closer arrangement of particles in solids.
