Answer:
The distinction can be understood by their individual definitions given below.
Explanation:
A meteoroid is a small rocky/metallic body that can be found in outer space (space beyond the Earth's atmosphere). Their sizes are much smaller than asteroids (often called planetoids) and even more smaller than that of any planets or their moons. They generally originate from comets, asteroids (fragments of them) and even from planets or moons when there occurs heavy collisions.
A meteor is basically what we know to be "shooting stars". When a meteoroid, asteroid, etc. passes through the Earth's atmosphere, they heat up and begin to glow because of the frictional force experienced due to gas molecules in the atmosphere. But the important thing is that they do not reach the surface of the Earth as they completely burn out long before coming close. If some object does manage to reach the Earth's surface, we then call it a meteorite.
(These definitions are not restricted to the Earth but applies to all panets <em>and </em>moons.)

<h2>The correct option is (A)</h2>
Explanation:
Travels faster in solids because the particles are closer together.
The reason for the above statement is -
(i) Sound waves travel through the medium (solid, Liquid, and gas), more denser is the medium more is the speed of sound.
(ii) In solid, the particles are arranged very closely and tightly packed therefore the sound waves in solid have the fastest speed or travels fastest in comparison to liquid and gas.
(iii) Slower than solid is the travel of sound waves in liquid than in gas(least dense, particles are far apart.

Answer:
V1 =8.1 m/s
Explanation:
height at highest point (h2) = 4.1 m
height at lowest point (h1) = 0.8 m
acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}
from conservation of energy, the total energy at the lowest point will be the same as the total energy at the highest point. therefore
mgh1 + 
= mgh2 + 
where
- speed at highest point = V2
- speed at lowest point = V1
- mass of the girl and swing = m
- at the highest point, the speed is minimum (V1 = 0)
- at the lowest point the speed is maximum (V2 is the maximum speed)
- therefore the equation becomes mgh1 + = mgh2
m(gh1 + 
) = m(gh2)
gh1 + = gh2
V1 = 
now we can substitute all required values into the equation above.
V1 = 
V1 = 
V1 =8.1 m/s
