Answer: solids.

Explanation:

1) These are some values of the speed of sound in different media:


In air 343 m/s (approximate as it depends on the temperature and humidity)
In water 1,484 m/s 
In iron 5,120 m/s

In diamond 12,000 m/s

2) Sound waves are disturbances (pulses) that propagates by the collision of particles in the media.

Since, the partilces in solids are closer than the particles in liquids, and these are closer than the particles in gases, the order of the propagation of the sound is: 

Faster in solids than in liquids, faster in liquids than in gases.

Describa con sus palabras que fue lo que descubrio galileo en su legendario experimento en la torre inclinada de pisa
german

Answer:

En 1589 Galileo realizó un experimento lanzando dos bolas de diferentes masas desde la famosa Torre Inclinada de Pisa para demostrar que el tiempo de caída es independiente de la masa de la bola. A través de este experimento, Galileo descubrió que los cuerpos caían casi simultáneamente, refutando la teoría de Aristóteles de que la tasa de caída era proporcional a la masa del cuerpo.  

Debido a la imperfección de los equipo de medición de esa época, la caída libre de los cuerpos era casi imposible de estudiar. En busca de una forma de reducir la velocidad de movimiento, Galileo reemplazó la caída libre por rodar sobre una superficie inclinada, donde había velocidades y resistencia del aire significativamente más bajas. Se notó que con el tiempo, la velocidad del movimiento aumenta: los cuerpos se mueven con aceleración. Se concluyó que la velocidad y la aceleración no dependen ni de la masa ni del material de la pelota.

How does a mirage occur in a deser?explain with a labelled diagram.​
Ronch [10]

Answer:

Mirages happen when the ground is very hot and the air is cool.

Explanation:

They happen when light passes through two layers of air with different temperatures. The desert sun heats the sand, which in turn heats the air just above it. The hot air bends light rays and reflects the sky.

When you see it from a distance, the different air masses colliding with each other act as a mirror.
