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.
Answer:
time rising = 34 / 9.8 = 3.47 sec
total time in air = 2 * 3.47 sec = 6.94 sec
(time rising must equal time falling)
R = 17 m/s * 6.94 s = 118 m
Can also use range formula
R = v^2 sin (2 theta) / g
tan theta = 34 / 17 = 2
theta = 63.4 deg
2 theta = 126.9 deg
sin 126.9 = .8
v^2 = 17^2 + 34^2 = 1445 m^2/s^2
R = 1445 * .8 / 9.8 = 118 m agreeing with answer found above
