No it is not true. When the temperature of the medium increases the speed of sound in that medium increases.
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.
Yes it is true, the state of a medium helps determine the speed of sound passing through the medium.
Well speed of sound in air at room temperature is 350 m/s . It depends on the density of the medium. Sound cannot propagate through vacuum. Speed of sound is directly proportional to the temperature of the medium.
The speed of sound in a gas does not depend on pressure.See related links.There are limits to the validity of this statement because it is valid for gasses that behave as "ideal" gasses. Thus, when near a pressure and temperature that is close to the point that the gas will condense into a liquid, this statement fails. For air, at all the temperatures which we experience, the speed of sound in air is independent of pressure.
The statement, when the frequency of the source of a water wave increases the speed of the waves traveling in the water increases is true. It is stated that sound will travel through the water at 20 degrees Celsius faster than water at 80 degrees.
No it is not true. When the temperature of the medium increases the speed of sound in that medium increases.
This statement is true. Our eardrums are moved by sound pressure deviations we measure as sound pressure level (SPL) in decibels.

It is not true that the speed of sound cannot be broken. In fact almost all fighter jet planes fly faster than the speed of sound.Its the speed of LIGHT that cannot be broken.
That's a true statement. Now, what was your question ?
The speed of sound through air is about 340 meters per second. (The speed of sound in water is about 4 times faster than this). The speed of light in air is about 300 million meters per second.
Yes it is true to a certain extent.
The speed of sound does not travel. In the event that an airplane's airspeed is below Mach-1, the speed of sound is faster than the speed of the airplane. On the occasion and at the moment when the true indicated airspeed of an airship or an airplane is in excess of Mach-1, the airplane is at that time traveling faster than the speed of sound.
