What does sound need to travel? 

It needs a medium (air, gas, water) 
500

Draw how particles move in (solid, liquid, gas)

which does sound move the quickest and why? 

Solid because the particles do not move as fast or as long as liquid and gas

Student conduct an experiment to see which drum will have the lowest pitch, on a snare drum and a bass drum, what are the variables for the experiment?(Hypothesis, Independent Variable, Dependent Variable, Constants) 

Hypothesis: If you hit a mallet on a snare drum than it will maker a higher pitch than when you hit a bass drum.

IV: the drum size

DC: the pitch

Constant: The mallet and the type of surface on the drums
