Noah and Nina are 15 m apart in a closed room. Noah says the same sentence twice. The first time, Nina does not hear the sound, but she does hear the sentence the second time. What best describes the difference between the second sound wave and the first? The second sound wave reflects off the walls of the room, so Nina is able to hear the sound. The second sound wave travels faster to Nina, so less energy is dissipated through the air. The air molecules in the compressions of the second wave are more dense. The air molecules in the second wave are closer together on average, so they travel faster.

    Sound waves need medium in order to travel from one place to another. In this case, the sound waves are able to travel through the surrounding air molecules. Nina was able to hear the second sentence most probably because the air is denser. Hence, the answer is the third choice.
