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.

Explain why the focal point of a diverging lens is called a virtual focal point.

4vir4ik [10]

The concave lens is a diverging lens, because it causes the light rays to bend away (diverge) from its axis. In this case, the lens has been shaped so that all light rays entering it parallel to its axis appear to originate from the same point, F, defined to be the focal point of a diverging lens.

During normal conditions, we only see the Sun’s __________, but during a solar eclipse, we get to see the _______________.

liberstina [14]

I would say A. because during the solar eclipse you cannot see the suns Photosphere at all, and the corona is the light that emits around the moon during the eclipse.
