The higher the density of the material, the faster the sound waves penetrate through it. This is because it requires less time for the vibration of the sound wave to interact with the molecules of the material.
By the way, sound is even faster going through metal, again for the same reason - density.

How long does it take for a sound wave to travel through 300 meters of water?
The speed of sound in water is approximately 1500 m/s. Therefore, it would take approximately 0.2 seconds for a sound wave to travel through 300 meters of water.
How does sound travel over water?
Sound waves travel through water in the same manner they do through air. The waves in which produced by the source will take form as the particles of water vibrate in a rhythmic pattern which yield to the specific sounds.
How long does it take for sound to travel 1000m?
Sound travels at approximately 343 meters per second in air at room temperature. Therefore, it would take about 2.9 seconds for sound to travel 1000 meters in air.
What are two types of energy that travel in waves?
Take your pick: water waves, sound waves, electromagnetic waves, gravitational waves.
How long does it take sound to travel 100 meters?
Sound travels at a speed of approximately 343 meters per second in air at room temperature. Therefore, it would take around 0.29 seconds for sound to travel 100 meters in these conditions.
How long does it take for a sound wave to travel through 3000 m of water?
Sound travels at approximately 1500 m/s in water. So, it would take about 2 seconds for a sound wave to travel through 3000 m of water.
How long does it take for a sound wave to travel through 300 meters of water?
The speed of sound in water is approximately 1500 m/s. Therefore, it would take approximately 0.2 seconds for a sound wave to travel through 300 meters of water.
If you are under water and you speak will it take more time for the sound to travel or less time?
It will take less time.....Because the speed of sound in water is more than that in air :)
Does vibrations of a earthquake or sound in water travel faster?
Well, let's look. Sound (compressional) waves need a medium to travel through (the ground, the water of the ocean.) Now let's compare densities of the medium. The denser the medium, the longer the sound waves take to travel. Now I think you can figure this one out.
What are types of energy that travel in waves?
Take your pick: water waves, sound waves, electromagnetic waves, gravitational waves.
Is sound waves matter?
Sound waves are not matter; they are the transmission of energy through a medium such as air, water, or solids. Sound waves are produced by vibrations and travel through the medium in the form of pressure variations that we perceive as sound.
How does sound travel over water?
Sound waves travel through water in the same manner they do through air. The waves in which produced by the source will take form as the particles of water vibrate in a rhythmic pattern which yield to the specific sounds.
How long does it take for sound to travel one mile in space?
There is no sound in space.
How many does take sound to travel in space?
It doesn't. Nothing to travel through.
Do waves travel faster in water or air?
They travel faster in water. Water molecules are closer together (more dense) than are air molecules and sound is a compressive phenomenon, meaning that a sound wave is carried through a medium by the molecules of that medium transferring the sound energy one to another. If the molecules are closer together, this energy transfer happens more quickly. Human ears aren't really designed to notice this difference, mostly because we're in air all the time, but dolphins and whales take great advantage of it.
How long does it take sound to travel 1000m?

Theorectically how long would it take sound to travel 1 parsect if it could travel through space?
The question is irrelevant, since sounds cannot be transmitted through space.
