Energy and the unit of measurement is in joules
Sound waves travel faster through <em>solids</em> than they do through gases or liquids. <em>(C) </em>They don't travel through vacuum at all.
Example:
Speed of sound in normal air . . . around 340 m/s
Speed of sound in water . . . around 1,480 m/s
Speed of sound in iron . . . around 5,120 m/s
Forces always work in the direction of their application.
Eg- Gravitational forces acts downwards due to the earth's pull.
