Answer:

The air the sound travels through cools down.

Step-by-step explanation:

I guessed a different answer on a test but the test said this was the right answer.

C. The air the sound travels through cools down will  cause a sound wave to slow down

Define sound wave ?

A wave of compression and rarefaction, by which sound is propagated in an elastic medium such as air is called a sound wave

Liquid and solid will be more denser than air . So, the sound wave travel faster in them as compared to air

hence , option A. The sound passes from air into a liquid and  D. The sound passes from air into a solid. are wrong options for slowing down the speed of sound wave

Heat is a from of kinetic energy , molecules at higher temperature have more energy and can vibrate faster and allow sound wave to travel more quickly , hence  B. The air the sound travels through warms up.  is wrong answer

correct answer is C. The air the sound travels through cools down will  cause a sound wave to slow down as speed of sound as for each 1 degree Celsius that temperature decreases, the speed of sound decreases by 0.6 m/s .
