Pitch of sound in air does not affect the speed of sound.
The speed of sound in air is also not affected by atmospheric pressure.
Temperature does affect the speed of sound in air.
Similar statements are not true for liquids or solids. It stops being true for gasses when pressure and temperature are near the point that the gas will liquify.

∙ 9y agoPitch, speed, and sound are all very closely related. Pitch of a sound will increase as the speed of the sound waves increase.

How does sound affect frequency?
The definition of sound is : "Vibrations that travel through the air or another medium and can be heard when they reach a person's or animal's ear." Sound can be measured by amplitude (loudness) and pitch (The frequency of the vibrations). Therefore sound does not affect frequency but frequency affects the pitch of the sound.
How does the temperature of a material affect the speed of sound passing through it?
Temperature is a fact for speed. Speed is increasing with the temperature.
How does the temperature change the sound pitch?
If the temperature goes up so goes the pitch (frequency) for woodwinds, because the speed of sound goes up with temperature.
How does the frequency of a sound wave affect the speed at which the sound wave moves?
Frequency and speed of propagation of the wave are independent of one another. The medium determines the speed of propagation.
Which sound will reach your ear first 256 Hz or 240 Hz?
You are confused between speed of sound and pitch. The speed of sound will remain constant at specific temperature and the medium. Since 256 Hz is a higher pitch, it will be shriller. Hope that helps :D
Does the temperature of water affect the pitch of sound?
Presumably you mean sound traveling through water. Temperature affects the density of water, therefore the speed of sound in water, and pitch is frequency, so yes, temperature affects pitch.
Is The pitch of a sound is determined by its wavelength and speed together or its?
The pitch of a sound can be determined by its frequencyalone.
Why a sound is made the wind blows through the leaves on a tree?
Sound is caused by a vibration of the leaves. Depending on the shape and stiffness of the leaves, the sound will sound different. Also the speed of the wind will affect the loudness and pitch of the sound.
Why sound is made when the wind blows through the leaves on a tree?
Sound is caused by a vibration of the leaves. Depending on the shape and stiffness of the leaves, the sound will sound different. Also the speed of the wind will affect the loudness and pitch of the sound.
Does speed of sound have pitch or volume?
"speed" does not have pitch or volume. it is the distance covered over time.
What factors affect the speed of sound in a medium?
Temperature, coefficient of restitution, density are some of the factors that affect the speed of sound in a medium.
How does wavelength affect sound and light?
Sound - pitch Light - color.
How does frequency affect light?
Frequency is the characteristic of light that gives rise to our experience of color. It is analogous to the relationship of frequency and pitch for sound.
The pitch of a sound is determined by its and speed together or its frequency alone?
The pitch of a sound can be determined by its frequency alone.
How does a jets speed affect the sound?
sound travels at a certain speed but jets go faster than sound waves
The pitch of a sound is determined by its wavelength and what?
only wavelengthActually, since ultimately the pitch we hear depends on the frequency, and the frequency is equal to the speed of sound divided by the wavelength, the pitch depends on both the wavelength and the speed of sound. The speed of sound in air depends on the temperature of the air. An approximate formula for calculating the speed of sound (credit Wikipedia) is:cair = 20.0457 x sqrt( T ) m/swhere T is the kelvin temperature.
Does of temperature of water affect the speed of sound?
no
