Question

A sound producing body is at considerable distance from a man. There can be four different media W, X, Y and Z between the sound producing body and the man. The medium X brings the sound to man most quickly whereas medium Z takes the maximum time. The time taken by medium W in bringing sound to man is less than that of X but more than that of Z. The medium Y, however, fails to bring the sound from the sound producing body to the man. Which medium could be the one:

Having no fixed shape and no fixed volume?
Having a fixed volume but no fixed shape?
Having the same composition as that on the moon?
Having a fixed shape and a fixed volume?

Answer

Z medium has no fixed shape and no fixed volume.
W medium has a fixed volume but no fixed shape.
Y medium has the same composition as that on the moon.
