Does the frequency of a wave remain constant if the medium temperature and pressure do not change?
Yes, the frequency of a wave remains constant as long as the medium temperature and pressure do not change. Temperature and pressure affect the speed of sound in a medium, not the frequency of the wave.
What is the atmospheric pressure if the temperature is at 0c the velocity of sound is 331.0ms density of air is 1.295kg and what formula is used?
Sorry, the atmospheric pressure has really nothing to do with the speed of sound at 0c, but he temperature is very important Scroll down to related links and read the short article "Speed of sound - temperature matters, not air pressure". The air pressure and the air density are proportional to each other at the same temperature.
Does sound velocity change based upon sound frequency?
No, sound velocity does not change based on sound frequency in a uniform medium. In a medium with a constant temperature and pressure, the speed of sound remains constant regardless of the frequency of the sound waves.
Why doesn't pressure affect the speed of sound?
Pressure doesn't affect the speed of sound because the static air pressure p_ and the density ρ of air (air density) are proportional at the same temperature and because the ratio p_ / ρ is always constant whether on a high mountain or even on sea level altitude. Therefore, the speed of sound stays constant and is only dependent on the changing temperature.
What is the effect of pressure o the speed of sound?
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.
The velocity of sound in air is independent of change in what variable?
The velocity of sound in air is independent of changes in frequency. Sound waves travel at a constant speed determined by the properties of the medium they are traveling through, such as air temperature and pressure.
Does the speed of the sound change from medium to medium?
Dependence of the speed of sound on the properties of the medium: The speed of sound is variable and depends mainly on the temperature and the properties of the substance through of which the wave is traveling. For example, in low molecular weight gases, such as helium, sound propagates faster compared to heavier gases, such as xenon. In a given ideal gas the sound speed depends only on its temperature. At a constant temperature, the ideal gas pressure has no effect on the speed of sound, because pressure and density (also proportional to pressure) have equal but opposite effects on the speed of sound, and the two contributions cancel out exactly. In non-ideal gases, such as a van der Waals gas, the proportionality is not exact, and there is a slight dependence on the gas pressure, even at a constant temperature. Humidity also has a small, but measurable effect on sound speed (increase of about 0.1% to 0.6%), because some oxygen and nitrogen molecules of the air are replaced by the lighter molecules of water.

How temperature affect the speed of sound?
The speed of sound in air changes clearly with temperature, a little bit with humidity − but not with air pressure (atmospheric pressure).Statement: The static air pressure p_ and the density ρ of air (air density) are proportional at the same temperature, because the ratio p_ / ρ is always constant, on a high mountain or even on sea level altitude.Notice: The ratio p_ / ρ (static air pressure to air density) is really always constant.
The speed of sound in air is directly proportional to what?
The speed of sound in air changes clearly with temperature, a little bit with humidity - but not with air pressure (atmospheric pressure).Speed of sound depends mainly on the temperature.

Why pressure does not effect the speed of sound?
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. See related link.
