Hey I have a test today on how sound waves can travel and I'm sure I'm gonna fail. Oh come on

00:00:16.670 --> 00:00:22.700
Nia the tests will be easy. All
you remember remember is sound is a

00:00:22.700 --> 00:00:27.920
form an energy, moves back and forth and needs a medium to travel through.

00:00:27.920 --> 00:00:31.760
Wait, I thought sound could only travel through air.

00:00:31.760 --> 00:00:37.110
Wait you're wrong. Who told you that misconception? Sound can travel through me just fine.

00:00:37.110 --> 00:00:37.610
Who said that?

00:00:37.610 --> 00:00:43.830
I'm water. Sound can travel through me at a regular rate, faster than air

00:00:43.830 --> 00:00:45.150
but slower than solid.

00:00:45.150 --> 00:00:46.770
Hey, don't forget about me.

00:00:46.770 --> 00:00:49.180
Wait, what was that?

00:00:49.180 --> 00:00:52.560
The table, I'm a solid and sound can travel through me just like the others.

00:00:52.560 --> 00:00:56.920
Just as well, even better
because my particles are so close
 together.

00:00:56.920 --> 00:00:58.600
I don't believe that.

00:00:58.600 --> 00:01:02.060
Well, just place your ear against the table and see what happens.

00:01:02.100 --> 00:01:03.580
(knocking on the table)

00:01:04.640 --> 00:01:07.820
Hey look over here.

00:01:07.820 --> 00:01:09.860
Great, now the air is
talking to us right now.

00:01:10.080 --> 00:01:16.460
All sound needs is a medium to travel. I may be the slowest but sound can still travel through me.

00:01:16.460 --> 00:01:19.530
Okay, I understand now. Sound can

00:01:19.530 --> 00:01:26.540
travel to matter. Solid is the fastest,
liquid is slower, and gas is the slowest.
