In what material does sound travel the fastest?

• SOLID

• LIQUID

• GAS

• ALL OF THEABOVE

Solids, liquids, and gases are different in terms of its molecules. These molecules are important in production and transmission of sounds effectively.

Which of the following statements BEST describes the relationship between a sound and medium?

• Sound is affected by different media.

• Sound cannot pass in different media except in gas.

• Sound is affected by different molecules of each given material. Thus, it makes this travels fast and slow.

• Sound is not affected by different molecules of each given material. Thus, it makes this travels fast and slow
