Detailed explanation-1: -After passing through the gas medium, the average sound loudness was-45db. It was-27db for the liquid medium, and-21db for the solid medium. The experiment showed that Solid was the best of the 3 mediums for the sound to travel the loudest.
Detailed explanation-2: -Sound waves move faster through a denser medium because energy is more easily passed between tightly packed molecules.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Krakatoa volcanic eruption: Not only did it cause serious damage to the island, the eruption of Krakatoa in 1883 created the loudest sound ever reported at 180 dB. It was so loud it was heard 3, 000 miles (5, 000 km) away. 3. A 1-Ton TNT Bomb: An explosion from this bomb would measure 210 dB.
Detailed explanation-4: -→How do sound waves travel through solids? In solids, sound waves are able to travel because the particles in the solid are tightly packed together. The particles vibrate back and forth, transmitting the sound wave through the material.
