Sound is a kind of energy and it needs a medium to travel as it is a kind of longitudinal wave. The speed of sound in different medium is different. Along with the nature of the medium temperature also affects the speed of the sound. At \({22^\circ }C\) speed of sound in some medium is given below: 1. Air – 346 m/.s 2. Water (Distilled) – 1498 m/s 3. Water (Sea) – 1531 m/s 4. Flint Glass – 3980 m/s 5. Steel – 5960 m/s Sound energy gets reflected through a suitable reflecting surface. An echo is a reflected sound which is heard separately. The sensation of sound persists in our brain for about 0.1sec. To hear the echo clearly at ${22^\circ }C$, the minimum distance between the source of sound and obstacle should be 17.2 m as the speed of sound in air at that temperature is 344 m/s. the speed of sound is more in sea water than in distilled water at the same temperature because of
- Ataste of sea water is different from distilled water
- Bdensity of sea water is more than distilled waterCorrect
- Csea water can conduct electricity
- Danimals can survive in sea water

In everyday life, we see some objects at rest and others in motion. An object may appear to be moving for one person and stationary for some other. Most motions are complex. Some objects may move in a straight line, others may take a circular path. The simplest type of motion is the motion along a straight line. The shortest distance measured from the initial to the final position of an object is known as the displacement. If the object covers equal distance in equal intervals of time, it is said to be in uniform motion. During uniform motion of an object along a straight line, the velocity remainse constant with time. In this case, the change in velocity of the object for any time interval is zero. However, in non-uniform motion, velocity varies with time. Non-uniform motion is of two types – uniform acceleration and non-uniform acceleration. If a car travelling along a straight road increases its speed by unequal amount in equal intervals of time, the car is said to be moving with non-uniform acceleration whereas, if its speed increases or decreases by equal amount in equal interval of time, it is said to be moving with uniform acceleration. The table given below shows distance (in metres) travelled by three cars A, B and C. Read this data carefully and answer the questions that follow: Which of the car is moving with uniform motion?

- ACar ACorrect
- BCar B
- CCar C
- DCar B and Car C
