as temperature increases kinetic energy increases and speed of sound increases , when elasticity modulus increase rigidity of material increases and speed of sound also increases

Some factors that affect the speed of sound waves are density of medium, temperature, direction of wind, and humidity. Remember that a sound wave is just a pressure disturbance that travels through a medium by particle interactions. The nature of the medium will affect the sound waves velocity.
electromagnetic waves do not require medium for their propagation. such as radio waves.
Propagation of disturbance suffered by a particle in a medium is called wave propagation Wave Propagation is a term used to estimate the actions and characteristics of a wave of motion either in solids, liquids, gasses, or electrical radio type waves by the environment it is in and what factors affect those waves behaviors.
The velocity of sound depends on the nature of the medium because the properties of the medium, such as its density and elasticity, determine how quickly sound waves can travel through it. In general, sound travels faster in solids than in liquids, and faster in liquids than in gases, because solids have higher density and elasticity compared to liquids and gases. Additionally, the temperature of the medium can also affect the velocity of sound.
Temperature, coefficient of restitution, density are some of the factors that affect the speed of sound in a medium.
The three properties of a medium that affect the speed of sound are elasticity, density, and temperature. Answered by: Nur _ _ _ _ _ _ Izyani
The speed of sound is affected by 3 properties: Elasticity and Density of the medium through which the sound waves travel, and the temperature of the medium. Media with higher elasticity, like iron, for instance, transmit sound faster. (Elasticity is the ability of a substance to return to its original shape after being deformed by a force applied to it. Rubber has high elasticity, too.)

The speed of sound depends upon elasticity and inertia of the medium which in turn depend upon the temperature of the medium.That's why speed of sound depends upon the temperature of the medium.
Frequency and speed of propagation of the wave are independent of one another. The medium determines the speed of propagation.
I'm afraid I can only answer half your question: The medium has a strong influence on the propagation of a sound wave. In fact the speed of propagation will be fastest in solids and slowest in gasses. The close proximity of the particles allows for the distrubance to travel more quickly. Think of those old Western movies with the guy listening to the ground to tell if a stampeed is coming.

Propagation of sound in a medium (like the atmosphere) is the collision between the medium particles driven by a vibrating object
Mechanical waves require a medium for their propagation whereas electromagnetic waves require a medium for their propagation.
