In this sound experiment children listen for differences as they tap on a bag of air, a bag of water, and a wooden block held up to their ears.

The objective of this science fair project idea is to determine if sound travels best through the air, water or a solid.

How fast does light travel in different mediums? Kids conduct a cool refraction experiment in materials like water and air for this science fair project.

The objective of this experiment is to identify common materials that absorb sound waves with the greatest efficiency.
