Answer:

Explanation: Sound is a mechanical wave that results from the back and forth vibration of the particles of the medium through which the sound wave is moving. The movement of the particles is parallel (and anti-parallel) to the direction of the energy transport. This is what describes/shows sound waves in air as (related to studying things over a long time) waves.

love history [14]
There is not enough information given to answer with. The force of gravity at the planet's surface depends on the planet's radius as well as its mass. The planet could have exactly the same mass as Earth has. But if it's radius is only 71% of Earth's radius, then gravity on its surface will be twice as strong as gravity on Earth.
