Question:

A horn on a boat sounds a warning, and the sound penetrates the water. How does the frequency of the sound in the air compare to its frequency in the water? How does the wavelength in the air compare to the wavelength in the water?
(a) The frequency in the air is smaller than the frequency in the water, and the wavelength in the air is greater than the wavelength in the water.
(b) The frequency in the air is greater than the frequency in the water, and the wavelength in the air is smaller than the wavelength in the water.
(c) The frequency in the air is the same as the frequency in the water, and the wavelength in the air is the same as the wavelength in the water.
(d) The frequency in the air is the same as the frequency in the water, and the wavelength in the air is smaller than the wavelength in the water.
(e) The frequency in the air is the same as the frequency in the water, and the wavelength in the air is greater than the wavelength in the water.
