Detailed Solution

Sound travels the fastest in steel.
Sound travels faster through solids. This is because molecules in a solid medium are much closer together than those in a liquid or gas, allowing sound waves to travel more quickly through it. In fact, “sound waves travel over 17 times faster through steel than through air.” Sound does not travel through a vacuum as the production of sound vibrations is needed which is not possible in a vacuum.
