Most paint dries faster on wood.
obviously on wood dumb,it absorbs the liquid in it.

i think metal dries faster because if it gets wet it bounces right off and wood soaks it up but it stills dries faster so i really think they both dry faster.
Studies have shown that the speed the ball travels after being hit by a metal bat is 3 to 8 miles per hour faster than a wood bat. This would translate to a ball hit for a home run travelling 20 to 50 feet further off a metal bat as opposed to a wood bat. Click on the 'Metal Bat vs Wood Bat' link on this page to read a very interesting article about these studies that were performed on the two different types of bats.

Sound waves travel faster through wood than through water. The speed of sound in wood is approximately 3300 m/s, while in water it is around 1500 m/s.
You mean which one does it travel faster in? It would be a brick because of how tightly packed the molecules in the brick are together. Wood, which is a lot more fragile that brick, does not allow sound to travel through it as fast.
Mainly wood for the lane, rubber or wood for the gutter, plastic or metal for the ball return.
Yes i guess sound waves travel faster through wood than in water. Because molecules are tightly packed in wood(solid) than in water(liquid).
metal,wood and then brick. yes all the basics
It is not colder. Metal conducts heat better (faster) than wood/wood composites so the metal feels colder because it is removing heat from your hand faster than the desktop.
