The speed of sound depends on the medium in which it is transported.
Sound travels fastest through solids, slower through liquids and slowest through gases.
So it will travel slowest through water at 55 degrees

25 x 10^-5
= 0.00025
25 cm
= 0.00025 km
Answer: 288.8 m
Explanation:
We have the following data:
is the time it takes to the child to reach the bottom of the slope
is the initial velocity (the child started from rest)
is the angle of the slope
is the length of the slope
Now, the Force exerted on the sled along the ramp is:
(1)
Where
is the mass of the sled and
its acceleration
In addition, if we draw a free body diagram of this sled, the force along the ramp will be:
(2)
Where
is the acceleration due gravity
Then:
(3)
Finding
:
(4)
(5)
(6)
Now, we will use the following kinematic equations to find
:
(7)
(8)
Where
is the final velocity
Finding
from (7):
(9)
(10)
Substituting (10) in (8):
(11)
Finding
:

Decrease the amount of force applied
