What happens when the density of a medium increases

Physics

We all know that the sound travels faster through solids and then liquids and then through gases.
As far as i know solids are the medium through which the sound travels fast.

But in some websites I saw that as the density increases , the velocity of the sound decreases.If this statement is correct , how come the sound travels fastest through solids (since they have higher density) 

From this it is clear that not only sound as compression wave But also in the form of Shear wave travels in Solids

This makes it easier for sound to travel with higher speed in solids

AlekseyPX
When a footballer collides with the goal post, the forces at work are the action and reaction forces. The player will exert an action force on the goal post, and then a reaction force from the goal post will stop the player. The reaction force call will cause pain and even injury to the player.

An Na ion has a charge of +1 and an O ion has a charge of –2. How many Na ions does one O ion need to balance charges
Aleonysh [2.5K]
Because Na⁺ ion lacks an electron and O²⁻ has two extra electrons extra, to balance the charge, we need 2 Na⁺ ions.
 
All ions, atoms and molecules want to get to the minimum energy state, and that state is when the ion, atom, or molecule is neutral, that's why all of them want to balance their charges.

Why were the rings of Uranus not observed directly from telescopes on the ground on Earth? How were they discovered?
leonid [27]

Answer:Explained below.

Explanation:

Uranus rings is made up of jet black, coal-like particles in small bands, making them difficult  to perceive from Earth.This indicates that they are probably composed of a mixture of the ice and a dark material. The nature of  material is dismal, but it might be some organic compounds greatly darkened by the charged particle irradiation from the Uranian magnetosphere. Rings were discovered by using a infrared telescope throughout  the occultation of a star as Uranus passed in front of it. The light from the star dimmed many times before it was obstructed by the disk of Uranus and subsequently, showing the presence of various distinct rings.
