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.


What are 2 things that affects the speed of sound?

There are many things that affects. Medium and temperature are examples.


What are the affects the speed of sound?

There are some factors. Examples are temperature,medium and density.


How does each factor affect transmission of sound waves?

Pressure does not make any change in the speed of sound But temperature affects it. Velocity is proportional to the square root of kelvin temperature Humidity also affects the speed of sound. Higher the humidity more the speed


Why does the speed of sound change if the temperature of the medium change?

The speed of sound is directly proportional to the temperature of the medium. This is because temperature affects the average speed of the molecules in the medium, which in turn affects how quickly sound waves can travel through it. As temperature increases, the speed of sound also increases due to the higher molecular activity.


Explain how temperature affects the speed of sound?

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.


Do speed of sound increases with increasing temperature in the ear?

Sound does travel slightly faster as air temperature increases and this applies when the sound enters the ear just as it does in any other air. Once the sound has passed the ear drum, air is no longer the medium in which the sound travels so air temperature no longer affects the speed of sound.


How does temperature affect the speed of sound through a material?

Temperature affects the speed of sound through material by kinetic energy. The more molecules the higher temperatures will have more energy.


How latitudes affects temperature?

Latitude Affects temperature.


Why the speed of sound dicrease with rise in temperature?

The question is wrong. With rising temperature the speed of sound is also rising. Air temperature affects the speed of sound. The formula to find the speed of sound in air is as follows: c = 331 m/s + 0.6 m/s * T (°C) c is the speed of sound and T is the temperature of the air. One thing to keep in mind is that this formula finds the average speed of sound for any given temperature. The pitch of woodwind instruments goes up, when the temperature goes up.


When was Sound Affects created?

Sound Affects was created on 1980-11-28.


How does the temperature affects colors?

it is a warm color, therefore it affects warm temperature. it is a warm color, therefore it affects warm temperature.
