When any object vibrates, then sound is produced through that object and that sound travels through any medium (solid, liquid or gas). Sound travels fastest in solid. The main thing is that sound travels through any medium or sound needs a medium to travel.

Sound waves need to travel through a medium such as a solid, liquid, or gas. The sound travels in form of waves through either of these medium that is solid, liquid or gas. it happens as the sound waves move through each of these mediums by vibrating the molecules in the matter or we can say that sound waves hits the particles of matter that is solid,liquid or gas and causes vibrations , thus it gets transferred from one place to another and sound travels fastest in solids as the solid matter particles are closest to each other as compared to liquid and gases.

Sound waves travel at 343 m/s through the air and faster through liquids and solids. The waves transfer energy from the source of the sound, e.g. a drum, to its surroundings. Your ear detects sound waves when vibrating air particles cause your ear drum to vibrate. Sound vibrations travel in a wave pattern, and we call these vibrations sound waves. Sound waves move by vibrating objects and these objects vibrate other surrounding objects, carrying the sound along. ... Sound can move through the air, water, or solids, as long as there are particles to bounce off of.
