Why do you think such a large range of speeds is given for wood and glass?

The large range of speeds for wood and glass is due to variations in density, moisture content, and structure within different types of wood and glass. These factors affect the way sound travels through the material, leading to variations in speed. Additionally, the composition and quality of the material can also impact the speed at which sound travels.

What is glass tubing and how is it used?

Glass tubing is exactly what it sounds like -- a tube made of glass. Glass tubing comes in all shapes in sizes, with tube diameters or just a millimeter or less up to very large tubes. It can be used for a number of things. I can be used to carry both liquid and gasses. With a triangular file, it is possible to break glass tubing into smaller pieces. Using a hot flame from a Bunsen burner, it is possible to bend glass tubing into other shapes.See the Web Links to the left for more information about how to use glass tubing.
