  • Sound is a mechanical wave that is produced by vibrating or oscillating objects
  • The speed of sound depends on the type of medium where it travels. The closer the molecules are to each other in a medium and the stronger their bond interactions, the less time it takes to pass the sound wave.
  • Solids, liquids and gases are the different media where sounds travel.
  • Sounds travel the fastest through SOLIDS.
  • Sounds travel the slowest through GASES.
