ANSWER:

Sound waves are faster in water

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

Sound travels differently in water than it does in air.

Sound waves travel faster in denser substances because neighboring particles will more easily collide with each other.

Water is denser than air, which means that sound waves travel much faster in water than in air.

Although they travel faster in water, we must keep in mind that the human ear evolved to hear sounds in the air and is not as useful when submerged in water.
