The speed of sound is fastest in what type of matter?
Sound travels fastest, and best through a solid. eg. steel
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.
Sound wave travel the fastest with what material?
Sound travels fastest through iron and sound travels slowest through air!
