water is more elastic because the change in volume is less in case of water.So it has greater restoring force.

What is more elastic air or water?

Air is more elastic than water. This is because air is compressible, meaning it can be easily compressed under pressure and then expand back to its original volume, while water is much less compressible.


Why does water exert more pressure than air?

Water is more dense than air is.


Why is air more buoyant than water?

Air is more buoyant than water because it has a lower density. The density of an object determines its buoyancy - objects with lower density than the fluid they are in will float. Air is less dense than water, so objects are more likely to float in air than in water.


What are the elements in farts?

air and water(more air than water.).


Why the velocity of sound in air is very slow compared to that in water?

Sound travels faster in water than in air because water is denser and has a higher elastic modulus. This allows sound waves to propagate more efficiently through water compared to air, where the particles are less tightly packed and have less ability to transmit sound waves.


Why do objects seem to be lighter in water than in air?

Objects are more buoyant in water than in air.


What weighs more water or air?

Water weighs more than air. This is due to the density of the substances - water is much denser than air, so a given volume of water will have more mass (and thus weight) compared to the same volume of air.


Why does a metal ship flow on water?

Because in the ship has more air than the water.Therefore water has more density than the metal ship which contains more air.


Why is speed of sound faster in water than from air?

because sea has more air than air.


Does warm air hold more water molecules?

Yes, warm air can hold more water (in the form of water vapor) than colder air.


Can warm air hold less water vapor than cold air?

no, warm air holds more water vapour than cold air


Why exchange of gases occur more efficently in air than in water?

Because in air the diffusion of gases takes place more quickly than in water.
