9. Sound needs a medium (e.g. air) to propagate. Space has no air. Hence sound cannot travel through space.
10. Light travels much faster than sound in air. The vision of the singer thus arrives at the eyes of the audience much earlier than sound does.
Solution: install more louspeakers near the audience.
13. (a) Wavelength of 20 Hz wave = 340/20 m = 17 m
Wavelength of 4450 Hz = 340/4450 m = 0.0764 m (= 7.64 cm)
(b) The dimension of the human mouth is is shorter than the wavelength of the highest note that he can produce. It is not suitable to propagate sound in wide areas.
14. Distance travelled by the sonar signal (聲納訊號) = 1400 x 3 m = 4200 m
Depth of sea = 4200/2 m = 2100 m
18. This seems not a physics question.
Whether the sound is noise or music depends on very much human feeling.
Also, the recommendation given a District Board Member takes into consideration social factors and degree of acceptance by local residents. It is not purely a scientific decision.
