Answer:A air

Explanation:Of the three mediums (gas, liquid, and solid) sound waves travel the slowest through gases, faster through liquids, and fastest through solids. Temperature also affects the speed of sound.

Hope this helps you out ツ

A. air would be the correct answer

Sound travels more quickly through solids than through liquids and gases because the molecules of a solid are closer together and, therefore, can transmit the vibrations (energy) faster. Sound travels most slowly through gases because the molecules of a gas are farthest apart.

kumpel [21]

Answer:

2677.3 N

Explanation:

v₀ = initial speed of the hand = 4.75 m/s

v  = final speed of the hand = 0 m/s

m = Total mass of hand and forearm = 1.55 kg

t = time interval for hand to come to rest = 2.75 ms = 0.00275 s

F = Force applied on the leg

Using Impulse-change in momentum equation

F t = m (v - v₀)

F (0.00275) = (1.55) (0 - 4.75)

F = - 2677.3 N

magnitude of force = 2677.3 N

serg [7]

An object is lifted from the surface of a spherical planet to an altitude equal to the radius of the planet.  

As a result, the object's <em>mass remains the same</em>, and its <em>weight decreases</em> to 1/4 of whatever it is when the object is on the planet's surface.
