Sound waves travel fastest through steel.
Answered by

Yes, that's correct. The speed of sound waves is determined by the density and elasticity of the medium it travels through. Solids, such as steel, have a higher density and elasticity compared to liquids or gases, which results in the sound waves traveling faster through them.
