It would travel faster through a steel bar, because sound waves travel by vibrating molecules in a medium. In solids, these molecules are spaced closer together, causing sound to travel faster through it. so that means the second fastest medium is liquid and the slowest is gas

The pupil of the human eye can vary in diameter from 2.00 mm in bright light to 8.00 mm in dim light. The eye has a focal length
Zarrin [17]

The indicated data are of clear understanding for the development of Airy's theory. In optics this phenomenon is described as an optical phenomenon in which The Light, due to its undulatory nature, tends to diffract when it passes through a circular opening.

The formula used for the radius of the Airy disk is given by,

y_r=1.22\frac{\lambda f}{d}

Where,

y_r = Range of the radius

\lambda = wavelength

f= focal length

Our values are given by,

State 1:

d=2.00mm = 2*10^{-3}m

f= 25mm = 25*10^{-3}m

\lambda = 750nm = 750*10^{-9}m

State 2:

d=8.00mm = 8*10^{-3}m

f= 25mm = 25*10^{-3}m

\lambda = 390nm = 390*10^{-9}

Replacing in the first equation we have:

y_{r1} = 1.22\frac{(750*10^{-9})(25*10^{-3})}{2*10^{-3}}

y_{r1}= 11.4\mu m

And also for,

y_{r2} =1.22\frac{(390*10^{-9})(25*10^{-3})}{8*10^{-3}}

y_{r2} = 1.49\mu m

Therefor, the airy disk radius ranges from 1.49\mu m to 11.4\mu m
