Question

If the student hit a drum in his bedroom how would the sound wave behave differently than if he hit it in a swimming pool? Please respond in full sentences. Make sure you use the words faster, slower, medium, air, water in your answer.

Answer 1

In the bedroom the soundwaves will travel because there is no force to suppress the sound other than the walls. While in a pool the water molecules will suppress the sound wave. Like it's different when you beat i under a blanket rather than outside.

Hope this helps!
