Sound travels faster and more efficiently through air than through water due to the difference in densities. Air molecules are further apart than water molecules, allowing sound waves to move more freely and be more easily detected in air. Additionally, the human ear is adapted to receive sound in air, making it less effective at hearing sounds underwater.
Higher pitched sounds are typically easier to hear underwater compared to lower pitched sounds. The reason for this is that water is a denser medium than air, which results in faster attenuation of lower frequency sounds and better transmission of higher frequency sounds.
Yes, humans can hear sounds underwater, although they are usually muffled and distorted due to the different medium. Water is much denser than air, so sound travels faster and farther, but with a reduced clarity compared to in air.
Contrary to light, sound travels faster through a denser medium than a less-dense medium, meaning it will travel much faster in a solid than a liquid, and faster in a liquid than a solid. This is also why the infamous "If you scream in space, nobody can hear you." holds (some) truth: There isn't enough particles for sounds waves to bounce off of, so it dissipates.
Air: Sound travels most efficiently through air, which is why we are able to hear sounds in our environment. Water: Sound moves through water about four times faster than it does through air, which is why marine animals like whales communicate using sounds underwater. Solids: Materials like metals and glass conduct sound well because the molecules are closely packed, allowing vibrations to travel efficiently.
We do not "here" sounds, that is the wrong word. you "hear" sounds. We hear them through our ears which are sensitive to vibrations in the air.

your eardrums take in vibrations from the air...
Oxygen and air are not sounds.
you make sounds with your voice. You blow air, and add some of your voice too. This is called 'speaking'.You also hear sounds with your ears.

Sound travels faster in water than it does in air. It travels even faster in metals.
Yes. Air travels faster in liquid if you compare it to a solid. Air travels the fastest in gasses.
because air is thiner and water has monicules
Whales can generally only hear sounds that are made underwater. They have very good ears, because they 'talk' to each other using grunts and squeals over long distances. Sound waves travel extremely well in water . . . much better than in the air.
