through denser materials, because the molecules in a tightly packed medium collide more frequently
through less dense materials, because the molecules in a loosely packed medium collide less frequently
through less dense materials, because the molecules in a loosely packed medium collide less frequently
through less dense materials, because the molecules in a loosely packed medium collide more frequently
1 answer
The correct response is:
through denser materials, because the molecules in a tightly packed medium collide more frequently.
Sound waves travel faster in denser materials because the molecules are closer together, allowing for more efficient transmission of the sound energy through more frequent collisions.
