There are many properties. Temperature medium are examples.
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
actually medium has amain role in the speed of sound, In air the sound can move faster while comparing to any other medium like liquid ,solid
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.
As the temperature of the medium increases, so does the speed of sound. As the temperature decreases the speed of sound decreases (this is true for air, at least). To calculate speed of sound in air: V = 331 + 0.59T where T is the air temperature in degrees C.
Frequency and speed of propagation of the wave are independent of one another. The medium determines the speed of propagation.
medium really affect the speed of sound the big example in front of us is sun as there are a lot of explosions on the surface of sun because of nuclear reactions but we cant hear them because there is a vaccum between earth and sun.
Sound speed is changing with medium. Metal medium has high speedsfor sound.
The speed of sound through the medium also increases.
The most relevant answer to this question is medium, the most prime factor affecting the rate of sound travel is the medium which carries the sound waves, sound is fastest in solids and slowest in viscous fluids.
The sound needs a medium to be transported. Without that medium (vacuum) there is no sound. The sound is blocked by air mulecules. The light does not need a medium.
Speed of sound increases with the increase in temperature of the medium .In fact the speed of sound is directly proportional to the square root of absolute temp. of the medium.
