The wave speed of sound waves traveling through four different media was measured at a constant temperature. Results are summarized in the table. Which statement provides a plausible hypothesis based on these results?
Medium Wave Speed of Sound
Cork 366 m/s
Water 1,433 m/s
Glass 5,640 m/s
Steel 6,100 m/s

A.
Changing the composition of a medium from metals to nonmetals enables sound waves to be transmitted at higher speeds.
B.
Changing the state of a medium from liquid to solid enables sound waves to be transmitted at higher speeds.
C.
Decreasing the brittleness of a medium enables sound waves to be transmitted at higher speeds.
D.
Increasing the density of molecules in a medium enables sound waves to be transmitted at higher speeds.

Need asap ! what is the relationship between atmospheric pressure and the density of gas particles in an area of increasing pressure? (2 points) as air pressure in an area increases, the density of the gas particles in that area decreases. as air pressure in an area increases, the density of the gas particles in that area increases. as air pressure in an area increases, the density of the gas particles in that area remains constant. as air pressure in an area increases, the density of the gas particles in that area increases and decreases in an alternating pattern. 3. which of the following correctly describes a way in which earth's atmosphere interacts with the geosphere?
