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.
No, speed of sound in gas depends only on temperature and is independent of gas pressure.
Look at the link "Speed of Sound - Wikipedia".
Speed of sound is proportional with (elasticity/density)
Temperature is inversely proportional with density
Thus, the speed of sound = C x (elasticity/density) x temperature.
The velocity of sound in a gas depends upon density and elasticity since the speed of a wave is defined as the distance that a point on a wave.

Notice: The speed of sound changes with temperature and a little bit with humidity − but not with air pressure (atmospheric pressure). The words "sound pressure at sea level" are incorrect and misleading. The temperature indication, however, is absolutely necessary. The speed of sound in air at 20 degrees Celsius (68 degrees Fahrenheit) is 343 metres per second. That is 1126.547 feet per second.
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.
The speed of sound varies with various factors such as temperature,nature of the material,physical state of the substance,etc.
The speed of sound is greatest in solids, as the particles are closer together and can transmit vibrations faster. In general, the speed of sound increases with an increase in density and elasticity of the medium.
It depends on the temperature, the elasticity, and the density.

The three properties of a medium that affect the speed of sound are elasticity, density, and temperature. Answered by: Nur _ _ _ _ _ _ Izyani
The speed of sound is affected by 3 properties: Elasticity and Density of the medium through which the sound waves travel, and the temperature of the medium. Media with higher elasticity, like iron, for instance, transmit sound faster. (Elasticity is the ability of a substance to return to its original shape after being deformed by a force applied to it. Rubber has high elasticity, too.)
The speed of sound through an object is related to the density and elasticity of the material. Velocity = square root of (elasticity (bulk modulus) divided by density). Thus if you can measure the material's elasticity and the velocity of sound waves passed through it, the density can be calculated without reference to the mass of the object.
It would depend on many quantities, including the gear ratio and exhaust system of the vehicle,the depth of the tire tread, the surface texture of the track or roadway, and of course the distanceof the observer from the action.
There are two factors if it is a metal. Those are elasticity and density.
It is due to different elasticity and density of the medium
The velocity of sound depends on the nature of the medium because the properties of the medium, such as its density and elasticity, determine how quickly sound waves can travel through it. In general, sound travels faster in solids than in liquids, and faster in liquids than in gases, because solids have higher density and elasticity compared to liquids and gases. Additionally, the temperature of the medium can also affect the velocity of sound.
as temperature increases kinetic energy increases and speed of sound increases , when elasticity modulus increase rigidity of material increases and speed of sound also increases dr ehab hegazy doctor of physics ehabhegazy99@yahoo.com
The speed of sound depends upon elasticity and inertia of the medium which in turn depend upon the temperature of the medium.That's why speed of sound depends upon the temperature of the medium.
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.
