The more dense a material is the faster sound will travel. Sound is dampened when the medium it is traveling through doesn't vibrate well; and when two different sounds cross there will be some places where the sound is amplified and where it is cancelled out, it has to do with the alignment of the crests and troughs, this is a phenomena that occurs with sound and light.

What factors affect the speed of wave?
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.
How do sound waves affect people?

How does a jets speed affect the sound?
sound travels at a certain speed but jets go faster than sound waves
What properties of waves affect the pitch and loudness of sound?
The frequency of a wave affects the pitch of sound, with higher frequencies producing higher pitched sounds. The amplitude of a wave affects the loudness of sound, with greater amplitudes producing louder sounds.
