5.) Which of the following statements about sounds is correct?
a. Sound cannot travel through solids.
b. Sounds travel faster in the air than liquids.
c. Sounds travel faster in solids than in air.
d. The travel of sounds is not affected by the medium through which it travels
(bonus on num. 5)
Sound waves travel faster in a solid than in liquids and gases. Because the speed of the sound depends on the density of the medium in which it propagates. Higher the density of the medium, the faster the sound travels.
