Yes, that's correct. In general, waves travel more slowly through denser mediums because the particles in a denser medium are packed more closely together, increasing the interactions and slowing down the propagation of the wave.

∙ 12y agoWhen a light wave passes from one medium to another of greater density, it slows. It will always travel at constant speed through any given medium that is transparent to it, but different media allow it to pass at different speeds.

What is transferred in a wave
False. The denser the medium, the faster a transverse wave propagates. This is because denser mediums have a higher resistance to deformation, which allows the wave to travel more quickly through them.
The slower a sound wave propagates. Sound waves travel faster in less dense mediums like air, and slower in denser mediums like water or solids.
That's correct. In transverse waves, the particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction in which the wave is traveling. This motion creates crests and troughs in the wave as it propagates through the medium.
The speed of a wave is inversely proportional to the square root of the density of the medium it is traveling through. As the density of the medium increases, the speed of the wave decreases. This relationship is described by the wave equation, which takes into account the elasticity and inertia of the medium.
The speed of a wave depends on the medium it is traveling through and the properties of that medium, such as density and elasticity. The speed of a wave is fastest in a medium that is more rigid and denser, such as in solids.

Waves disturb or perturb the medium and this propagates the wave.
The speed of a wave is determined by the medium through which it is traveling and the properties of that medium, such as its density and elasticity. In general, waves travel faster in more dense and less elastic mediums.
In terms of particles, "compression" means that particles move closer together.
When a wave moves through a denser medium, its speed decreases while its frequency remains constant. The wave will also experience refraction, causing it to change direction as it enters the denser medium. Additionally, the wavelength of the wave will shorten as it moves into the denser medium.

When a sound wave travels through a medium, it causes particles in the medium to vibrate back and forth. These vibrations create regions of compression and rarefaction, which form the sound wave. The wave then propagates through the medium in this way, carrying the sound energy from the source to our ears.
Traveling waves refer to a type of wave motion where the disturbance (such as energy or information) propagates through a medium in a continuous manner. These waves maintain their shape and speed as they move through the medium, without any change in amplitude or frequency. Examples of traveling waves include ocean waves, sound waves, and electromagnetic waves.
