The correct response is:
They have different rigidities.
The speed of sound in a material is influenced significantly by its rigidity or elastic properties. Diamond is much more rigid than wood, allowing sound to travel through it faster.
The speed of sound through diamond is about 12,000 m/s. The speed of sound through wood is about 3,300 m/s. Which statement explains why the speed of sound is different through these materials?(1 point)
