The sound travels faster through a dense medium. Colder temperatures are generally more dense, thus sound travels faster at a lower temperature.
Speed of sound depends on the density of the medium. As temperature increases density decreases due to expansion in the volume. Hence speed of sound gets affected by the change in temperature. Speed of sound is directly proportional to the square root of the temperature of the medium.
When you change density and temperature you effect the way sound travels through a medium.
The speed of sound varies with various factors such as temperature,nature of the material,physical state of the substance,etc.
on increasing of temperature, density goes low and it is known that density and speed of sound both are directly proportional hence speed of sound decrease when temperature increases esp in gas.
The speed of any mechanical wave depends on the density of the medium. Since solids are the densest, the speed of sound is minimum in solids. It is the maximum in gases, since the medium is the least densest.
The speed of sound through a medium depends on the density of the medium and the density of air is affected by temperature.
There is a effect If it is travel in solids. But it does not exists for gases.
Speed of sound depends on the density of the medium. As temperature increases density decreases due to expansion in the volume. Hence speed of sound gets affected by the change in temperature. Speed of sound is directly proportional to the square root of the temperature of the medium.
When temperature rises, the density of the medium changes. Speed of light through a medium is inversely proportional to the density of medium. So when the temperature increases, the density decreases and the speed of light in that medium increases. Note that this is the indirect effect of temperature. If light is travelling through vaccuum , then the temperature will have no effect on the speed of light.
by causeing larger sound waves through objects
Speed of sound would increase as the temperature of the air increases Speed of sound increases as humidity of air increases Speed of sound is affected by the density of the air. As density increases velocity of sound decreases
The air pressure has no effect. The static air pressure p_ and the density ρ of air (air density) are proportional at the same temperature. The ratio p_ / ρ is always constant, on a high mountain or even on sea level altitude. That means, the ratio p_ / ρ is always constant on a high mountain, and even at "sea level". The static atmospheric pressure p_ and the density of air ρ go always together. The ratio stays constant. When calculating the speed of sound, forget the atmospheric pressure, but look accurately at the very important temperature. The speed of sound varies with altitude (height) only because of the changing temperature there.
