2) Think about what happnens when you are talking. Decide wheter each of these statemnts is ture or false.
a. The air moleules move away from your mouth as you talk. True or false?

3) The speed of sound in steel is 500 m/s, in water is 1500 m/s, but in air only 330 m/s,
 wordss Copy and complete the sentences below, using these words or phrases to fill in the gaps. Some owrds or phrases are not needed.
Closer together,    Further appart,    Less,    More

  • The speed of sound in water is faster than the speed of sound in air because in water the particles are              than they are in air.
  • The speed of sound in air is slower than the speed of sound in steel ecaus in steel the particles are             than they are in air.
  • A sound made underwater will take              time to travel a certain distance than a sound made in air.
