Options:
Answer:
D
Solution:
The statement "Sound travels faster in vacuum than in air" is incorrect. Sound is a mechanical wave, requiring a medium to propagate. It cannot travel in a vacuum at all, as there are no particles to transmit the vibrations. Sound travels fastest in solids, then liquids, and slowest in gases.
