Sound travels the best through a solid. Since the molecules in a solid are closer together than in a gas or liquid the sound waves don't have to travel as far to reach the next molecule.

Will sound travel faster in solid liquid or gas?

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.


In which medium does the sound travel the fastest?

sound travels the fastest through a solid perferably dimond.


Why does sound travel best through a solid?

the matter inside is bunched together so sound travels best through a solid.


Where does sound travels through?

Sound travels through a medium, which can be solid, liquid, or gas. In solids, sound waves travel the fastest, followed by liquids, and then gases. In space, where there is no medium, sound cannot travel.


How does sound travel through solid objects?

Sound travels through solid objects via vibrations. When an object is struck or a sound is produced, it causes the particles in the solid to vibrate, transmitting the sound energy as a wave through the material. The speed of sound in a solid is determined by the material's density and elasticity.


Air is a medium through which sound travels What are the other mediums?

Sound can travels through liquid such as water and solid such as rock and ground. Put your ear on the floor and hear the people step for the proof of sound travel through solid.


Does sound travel faster through a solid block of metal or through air?

Sound travels faster through air. Though sound travels farther through solid objects (vibrations), it is faster when traveling through air waves.


Can sound trave through solid?

Yes, but sound travels slower through solids than air.


Which the materials sound travels fastest?

Sound travels fastest through solid materials because the particles are tightly packed, allowing the vibrations to pass quickly through the medium. Examples of solid materials where sound travels fastest include metals like steel and iron.


What are the different mediums through which sound travels?

Air, water, solid.


Does sound travels faster or slower through a solid than through air?

Faster.


Does sound travel fastest through snow or steam?

Snow because snow is a solid and steam is a Gas and science has shoe that sound travels fastest through solids
