Answer:
for water waves, the disturbance is in the surface of the water, perhaps created by a rock throw into a pond or by a swimmer splashing the surface repeatedly.For sound waves, the disturbance is a change in air pressure, perhaps created by the oscillating cone inside a speaker.

Sound waves travel faster in denser substances because neighboring particles will more easily bump into one another. ... Thus sound waves travel much faster in water than they do in air. In freshwater at room temperature, for example, sound travels about 4.3 times faster than it does in air at the same temperature.
