Question

Explain with the help of practical example how sound is propagated through solid

Answer 1

Sound is produced only when something vibrates
thus when something vibrates it produces sound

to support the vibrations the sound requires a medium in which these vibrations will cause the molecules to change in waves and allow sound to move thus
when the particles are attached in a closer format it is easier for sound to travel and moves to longer place as less energy is req. to overcome gaps of air.

thus sound is fastest in solids

(or)

The propagation of sound.Soumd is a sequence of waves of pressures which propagates through compressible media such as air or water. ( Sound can propagate through solids as well, but there are additional modes of propagation) . During their propagation waves can be reflected ,refracted or attentuated by the medium.

Answer 2

Sound waves are longitudinal waves, they propagate though space from particles colliding with each other.

In solids, the molecules are composed in a lattice with a lot of strong intermolecular bonds. This causes the molecules to be really close as solids are very dense, like the mosh pits of the most br00tal bands in existence. Because of this, the waves in a solid travel very very fast, and usually are too fast to be audible, and are considered to be more of pressure waves. Pressure waves are part of the same spectrum as sound waves, but are caused by faster waves. The waves are normally just pressure forces, like pushing an object, your hand pushes some molecules, which push other molecules, which push other molecules... in a wave. So most sound waves in solids are just pressure waves.

We hear the sounds emitted from solid objects because of resonance. Resonance is when an object oscillates at a specific frequency that causes it to increase in amplitude. This is simply moving back and forth, like a heavy metal guitar string! The string oscillates back and forth at its resonant frequency, and pushes against molecules of air, which causes the air to push against other air molecules, creating a sound wave since the air is less dense. The wave travels all the way to your ears, for you to enjoy.
