Question

A sound is passed through different liquids X and Y. it has found that sound travels faster in X than in Y. Comment on the relative densities of the two liquids.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Sound waves need to travel through a medium such as solids, liquids and gases. The sound waves move through each of these mediums by vibrating the molecules in the matter. ... This enables sound to travel much faster through a solid than a gas. Sound travels about four times faster and farther in water than it does in air.

Explanation:

solids

Of the three phases of matter (gas, liquid, and solid), sound waves travel the slowest through gases, faster through liquids, and fastest through solids. Let's find out why. Sound moves slowest through a gas. That's because the molecules in a gas are spaced very far apart.
