Question

Sound travels faster through gases than liquids.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

1. The propagation of sound is possible with the transfer of vibration of particles to neighbouring particles.
2. The more dense the particles are the more the sound will propagate faster.
3. The speed of sound is faster where there is more density.
4. So, sound propagates faster in solids as compared to liquids and gases.

So, the given statement is false.
