Sound travels fastest through matter in the <em>solid state</em>.
I know this from having answered a huge number of Brainly questions that required me to look up things like this:
-- Speed of sound in air . . . about 340 m/s
-- Speed of sound in sea-water . . . about 1,500 m/s
-- Speed of sound in steel . . . about 5,960 m/s
Answer:

Explanation:
Given:
- mass of skier,

- initial velocity of skier,

- height of the hill,

- spring constant,

<u>final velocity of skier before coming in contact of spring:</u>
Using eq. of motion:



<u>Now the time taken by the skier to reach down:</u>



<u>Now we calculate force using Newton's second law:</u>




<u>∴Compression in spring before the skier momentarily comes to rest:</u>
