You and a friend are swimming at your grandparent's house one toasty summer afternoon. You have music playing through the Bluetooth speaker

on the pool deck, but every time you go underwater, you can hear the

noise, but you cannot understand the words of the song. What would

explain this phenomenon? *

Sound waves travel faster in a gas than they do in a liquid, which is why you cannot

understand the words,

Sound waves travel faster in a liquid than a gas, our ears are just not designed to

translate the faster moving waves,

Sound waves cannot travel at all in a liquid, which is why you cannot understand the

words and it's a miracle you can even hear the music at all,

Sound waves travel at the same speed regardless of the medium; your grandfather is

turning the music on and off when you go underwater and the noise you hear is the

song stuck in your head,
