Generally we take with sufficient accuracy the formula (equation) for the speed of sound in air
c = 331.3 + 0.606 × ϑin m/s in m/s.
Temperature ϑ(theta) in degrees Celsius.
You see the speed of sound changes with the temperature and therefore cannot be a constant.

Is speed of sound proportional to distanced traveled?
No. The amplitude of the sound (and therefore its loudness) will decrease at greater distances; the speed will remain constant (assuming other factors, such as the density of air and the temperature, are constant).
Newton's work showed that speed of light and sound were constant true or false?
false
Can an object have a constant speed and the varying velocity at the same time explain?
Velocity is a vector. A vector has a magnitude and a direction. The scalar or magnitude portion of velocity is speed. Velocity is a constant only when both the speed and direction are not varying. Hence, when the speed is changing, the velocity cannot be a constant.
Why constant is used?
Constant is the speed of light and as the speed of light cannot change it is 'constant'
What are the five properties used to explain the behavior of sound waves?
Speed Intensity Loudness Frequency Pitch :)
Is the speed of sound always constant?
No.
Is the speed of sound a constant?
yes
How did pressure effects the sound when temperature is constant?
The atmospheric pressure has no effect on the speed of sound when the temperature is constant. The air pressure has no influence on the sound.
A car is driving at constant speed...... explain why the car will eventually reach a new higher constant speed?
because your going downhill
Why is the speed of sound constant despite changing frequencies?
Speed of sound in a medium depends only on the properties on the medium.
What process is primarily responsible for the increase of speed and sound on a rail road track?
The speed of sound depends on the medium. There is no particular process that will simply increase the speed of sound.
Is speed of sound proportional to distanced traveled?
No. The amplitude of the sound (and therefore its loudness) will decrease at greater distances; the speed will remain constant (assuming other factors, such as the density of air and the temperature, are constant).
Are you accelerating if you are traveling in a constant direction with constant speed and explain?
If you are traveling at a constant speed with changing direction there is a change in velocity, so you are accelerating.
Can an object be accelerated if it is moving with constant speed If yes explain giving examples.?
Yes, it can. Perhaps the simplest example is when an object moves at constant speed, in a circle. In this case, the speed doesn't change; the velocity does.
Can an object be accelerated if it is moving with constant speed if yes explain giving example?
Yes, it can. Perhaps the simplest example is when an object moves at constant speed, in a circle. In this case, the speed doesn't change; the velocity does.
Which material has more sound speed fresh water or seawater explain?
Fresh water has more sound speed. Spongy water is what slows down speed of water.
When sound enters another medium such as a wall what remains constant?
When sound enters another medium such as a wall, the frequency or pitch of the sound remains constant. The velocity or speed of sound may change depending on the properties of the medium, but the frequency remains the same.
