wave 3 will move the slowest.
wave 4 will move the fastest.
mark this and return save and exit next submit

Explanation:

Sound waves travel fastest in solids, slower in liquids, and slowest in gases. Wave 2 is in a solid (fastest medium among the given), Wave 1 and 4 are in liquids (faster than gas but slower than solid), and Wave 3 is in a gas (slowest medium). So Wave 3 will move the slowest.

Answer:

Wave 3 will move the slowest.
