The relevant equation to use here is:
y = v0 t + 0.5 g t^2
where y is the vertical distance, v0 is initial velocity =
0, t is time, g = 9.8 m/s^2
y = 0 + 0.5 * 9.8 * 3^2
<span>y = 44.1 meters</span>
I understand that sound travels faster in water then in air. Water is a liquid, and air is gas.
Water still has the ability to roll the molecules over each other (so water can flow), it has some flexibility.
But I do not understand how a solid that is inflexible can make sound waves travel faster then in a flexible liquid.
In fact, sound waves travel over 17 times faster through steel than through air.
Sound waves travel over four times faster in water than it would in air.
I will give you more than one , hardness,luster,color,streak,cleavage,fracture.
