Why is air displaced by water?
Air is displace by water because water is much denser than air and therefor is much harder to compress.
Why does sound in air is very slow compared to that in water?
Sound travels faster the closer the particles are. Denser material has faster sound.
Explain how a ship made of materials that are much denser than water is able to float on water?
It's the air in there.
What medium does light pass slower than air?

Is air more of less dense then water?
No everything is layered in density, water is much more dense than air. The whole planet is organized based on density with the core being the most dense and the exosphere being the least dense.
Why are force meter readings lower in water than in air?
Air is less denser than water is why the force meter readings lower in water. A force meter is a piece of equipment that is used to measure the different forces of the universe.
Does sound travel better through air or water?
Water- It is denser, and sound travels better through a denser substance.
What are sound waves like in water?
Sound waves in water are essentially the same as sound waves in air; they consist of a sequence of slight compressions of the water between non-compressed water, much as sound in air consists of denser sections of air in between less dense air. The main difference is that sound travels faster in water. The denser medium conducts sound better.
What term defines the amount of water that is in the air compared to how much water the air could hold at a given temperature?
Humidity?
Why is pressure higher at a depth of 10meters In the ocean than it is at a depth of 150 kilometers in the atomosphere?
Because water is denser than air.

Does sound travels faster through water or air?
Sound waves travel faster through denser mediums, and water is denser than air, so sound travels faster through water than air
