The speed of sound of change for mediums of different densities compressibilities and temperature because different densities give different resistance to the sound. It blacks more of ht sound the denser the object is,, and give more when the object is less dense.

Does temperature depends on sounds waves?
yes bcoz for different temperature we have different mediums.....
The speed of sound varies when?
sound travels faster or slower depending on the medium it is moving through and the temperature of the medium :]
If the bending of a wave entering a new medium occurs because the two sides of the wave are traveling at different?
Because the mediums are Traveling at different speeds.
Why does speed of light change in different mediums?
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.

Why does sound travel at different speeds through materials?
Notice: The speed of sound changes with temperatureanda 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.

yes bcoz for different temperature we have different mediums.....
Where can one contact different mediums?
Contacting mediums can be done by looking online for mediums to find their contact information. Different mediums are in different areas, so it depends on the person searching.
How does the temperature of the medium affect the speed of the sound?
For most mediums, a higher temperature results in higher density, and sound travels through denser mediums faster than through less dense mediums, so a lower temperature generally increases the speed of sound waves.

What doesnt affect the frequency of a sound wave?
different mediums
What is tranpiration?
When gas travels through different pressures and mediums.
What are the different cooking mediums?
Water, Air, Steam, Fat
What is the coulombs force between two point charges placed in different mediums?
In different mediums. hmm. Great question! It is related to the relative e0 constant for a particular medium. Research that.
Why does sound travel at different speeds through different mediums?
because of material density
What are the different mediums through which sound travels?
Air, water, solid.
