Answer:
21
Explanation: its actually 20.85 but i guess they round to 21
Speed of sound in cold air < Speed of sound in Warm air < Speed of sound in hot molten lead < Speed of sound in water
Explanation:
Step 1:
Speed of sound in water varies from 1450 to 1498 meters per second
Speed of sound in Hot Molten lead is approximately 1210 meters per second
Speed of sound in warm air is approximately 338.89 meters per second
Speed of sound in cold air is approximately 293.33 meters per second
Step 2:
In warm air sound travels faster than that of sound travelling nature in cold air.
∴ Speed of sound in cold air < Speed of sound in Warm air < Speed of sound in hot molten lead < Speed of sound in water
Speed of sound in cold air the slowest while Speed of sound in water is the fastest mean.
There was a supercontinent called Pangea
<h2>
Answer: an underground lake</h2>
Explanation:
In general, sound (mechanical waves) travels faster in solids than in liquids, and faster in liquids than in gases. This is because <u>the speed of the mechanical waves is determined by a relationship between the elastic properties of the medium </u>in which they are propagated and the mass per unit volume of the medium (that is:<u>density</u>).
In other words: The speed of sound varies depending on the medium through which the sound waves travel.
So, if we are told the sound wave initially had a speed of 4,000 m/s and it suddenly decreases to 1,500 m/s, this means the sound waves passed from a solid medium to a liquid medium.
Hence, the correct option is: an underground lake.
