Question

Sound travels slower in _______.

  1. Solids 
  2. Liquids 
  3. Gases 
  4. None of these

hintHint:

  • Sound travels faster in a denser medium

The correct answer is: Gases


    • Sound travels faster in a denser medium

    • Sound travels at different speeds depending on what it is traveling through. Of the three mediums (gas, liquid, and solid) sound waves travel the slowest through gases, faster through liquids, and fastest through solids. Temperature also affects the speed of sound.
