Answer: Find the answer in the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The music playing on the radio will be heard through the sound waves coming from the radio.

The travelling wave will obey Newton's first law of motion which state that:

An object or particle will remain at rest or continue its linear motion in a straight line except an external force is applied.

The external force through wind could affect the travelling of the sound waves. Since the wave is longitudinal wave. That is, it needs a medium (air) for its propagation.
