A student performs an experment where he sends sound waves from the air through a solid, a liquid, and a gas. He records the speed of the wave traveling through each medium but forgets to label each medium. The table shows his observations
Medium Speed Before (mis)
972
Y
1,483
Z
5,940
The student knows that sound travers through room temperature air at 343 mis. Based on the student's results, which medium is the solid, the liquid, and the gas?
OAX is the gas, Y is the liquid, and Z is the solid
B. X is the liquid, Y is the gas, and Z is the solid
OC. X is the solid, Y is the liquid, and 2 is the gas
D. X is the gas. Y is the solid, and Z is the liquid
C. X is the solid, Y is the liquid, and Z is the gas
Based on the speed of sound waves traveling through different mediums, the fastest speed indicated in the table corresponds to the solid medium, the medium speed corresponds to the liquid medium, and the slowest speed corresponds to the gas medium.
