Does sound travel farther through air or fog?

The more matter to transmit the sound, the farther and faster it goes. Thus, sound travels faster thru air than thru space (where it's a vacuum and it doesn't travel at all. ) And sound travels faster and farther thru water than thru air.

Add some water to air and it'll do better than dry air. Sound also travels better on cloudy days because the sound will bounce off the clouds and back to earth.

Thanks for your answer. We had a rock concert here in San Francisco and I heard it through the fog over 20 blocks away. I thought the fog would inhibit sound transfer since they are little droplets surrounded by air.

I figured they would act as a sound insulator. (traveling through different densities) My wife wins this one... but she's a science teacher so she wins most of the time. Cheers, Michael rockhound1 2 months ago .

Sound travels faster through any medium heavier than dry air. Since fog has more moisture and is more dense, that dry air, sound will travel faster; through sea water I think it’s over 4 times faster.

Thanks - I lost a bet on this. M rockhound1 2 months ago .

Opps. Am honest person. Sorry but your credit for honesty outweighs your small financial loss.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
