Answer: Hello there!

First, sound waves can propagate in any material, so options b and d can be discarded.

Sound waves propagate in spherical waves from the source, not in a perpendicular way, so this discards the option c.

Now, "sound waves have regions of compressions and refractions" is the right answer, these regions of compression and refraction are regions where the pressure changes, which is the thing that explains why sound waves are pressure waves.

nekit [7.7K]

We have: v = d/t
From the expression, we conclude speed is indirectly proportional to speed.
So, the car which will take longer time must have the smallest speed. Among all the options Car C has the smallest speed. So, it would be your answer.

In short, Your Answer would be Option C) Car C will take longer time than any other.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

For the given conditions the fundamental frequency is 3728.26 Hertz

Explanation:

We know that for a pipe open at one end and closed at other end the fundamental frequency is given by

$f=\frac{V_{s}}{4L}$

where

f is the fundamental frequency

$V_{s}$ is the speed of sound in air in the surrounding conditions.

L = Length of the pipe

Applying values we get and using speed of sound as 343m/s we get

$f=\frac{343}{4\times 2.3\times 10^{-2}}=3728.26Hz$
