in a solid sound is able to move freely than the other three.in a liquid its not compactilble or in a gas.
The speed of sound in the 3 states of matter is variable. Dependent on density, temperature, humidity, and many other properties.In 77°F water the speed of sound is 1497m/s (2409km/s)In dry 68°F air, the speed of sound is 768mph (1236kmh).The speed of sound in solid matter is different depending on basically what the solid is, and it's properties.In iron the speed of sound is 5130m/s (8255km/s), in lead it is 1322m/s (2127km/s)The formula for the speed of sound is as follows:c equals the square root of C divided by P.c = Speed of sound.C = Coefficient of stiffness.P = Density.
Sound travels through solids the fastest, as the particles in solids are closely packed, enabling vibrations to propagate quickly. In liquids, sound travels at a slower speed compared to solids, as the particles are less tightly packed. In gases, sound travels slowest due to the large distance between particles, causing vibrations to propagate more slowly.
Light travels much faster than the speed of sound. Some high-speed aircraft can travel faster than the speed of sound, reaching supersonic speeds. Particle accelerators can propel particles to speeds faster than the speed of sound.
Well everything has matter therefore, it is possible for it to be in all 3 states
There are four states of matter: solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. These states are determined by the arrangement of particles and their energy levels.

sound is mainly caused by vibrating particles and matter consists of matter and the 3 states of matter are solids liqiuids and gasses and due to the way particles are spaced in the different states of matter we will have sounds travelling at different speeds as it crosses the different states of matter.
The mach number is the speed, compared to the speed of sound in air. Thus, mach 1 is the speed of sound, mach 2 is twice (2 times) the speed of sound, mach 3 is 3 times the speed of sound, etc.
Sound travels through solids the fastest, as the particles in solids are closely packed, enabling vibrations to propagate quickly. In liquids, sound travels at a slower speed compared to solids, as the particles are less tightly packed.

There are 3 basic states of matter Solid Liquid Gas
There are 4 states of matter not 3. These are: solids, liquids, gases and plasma.
The three states of matter are solid, liquid and gas
they require a substance to use to make the 3 states of matter with.
Examples of matter: water, air, iron. Non-examples of matter: light, sound, thoughts.
Light travels much faster than the speed of sound. Some high-speed aircraft can travel faster than the speed of sound, reaching supersonic speeds. Particle accelerators can propel particles to speeds faster than the speed of sound.
The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s at a temperature of 20°C. The speed of sound changes clearly with temperature, a little bit with humidity - but not with air pressure (atmospheric pressure). Mechanical vibrations that can be interpreted as sound are able to travel through all forms of matter: gases, liquids, solids, and plasmas. The matter that supports the sound is called the medium. Sound cannot travel through a vacuum. Look at the link: "The Speed of Sound in Air and the effective Temperature".
