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.

What is factors can affect the height of a wind formed wave?
the speed of the wind,the length of time that the wind blows, and the fetch
What factors affect the speed of sound in a medium?
Temperature, coefficient of restitution, density are some of the factors that affect the speed of sound in a medium.
Does the frequency or wavelength of the wave affect its speed?
The speed of a wave depends only on the mechanical or electrical characteristics of the medium or environment through which the wave propagates. It doesn't depend on the wave's frequency or wavelength.
What are three things that can affect the size of a wave?
the wind speed,wind duration and the distance the wave is traveling
Does varying the either the wavelength or frequency affect the speed of the wave in that medium?
No.
Does wave length affect wave speed?
No....
What is factors can affect the height of a wind formed wave?

How does changing the frequency affect the wave speed?
The speed of a wave doesn't depend on its frequency.
Does the amplitude affect on the wavelength or wave speed?
No, the amplitude of a wave does not affect the wavelength or wave speed. The wavelength is determined by the frequency of the wave, while the wave speed is determined by the medium through which the wave is traveling. Amplitude simply represents the maximum displacement of particles in the wave.
What wave property affects the speed of a wave?
Both the wavelength and the frequency of a wave affect the speed of a wave.
How does increasing the wave speed affect the frequency?
Assuming a constant wavelength, then increasing the wave speed will increase the frequency.
How does the frequency of a sound wave affect the speed at which the sound wave moves?
Frequency and speed of propagation of the wave are independent of one another. The medium determines the speed of propagation.
What factors affect a wave's ability to erode and carry sediment?
looseness of sediment, speed of wave, angle of wae on sediment, angle of beach floor (as that changes the waves suction angle height and strength)
What factors affect the speed of sound in a medium?
Temperature, coefficient of restitution, density are some of the factors that affect the speed of sound in a medium.
Why the wave length does not affect the wave speed?
Because it only resembles the wavelength, the speed is how fast the wave travels. two waves of the same size can travel at the same speed Wave speed is affected by a combination of wavelength and frequency, not just one alone.
Does the frequency or wavelength of the wave affect its speed?
The speed of a wave depends only on the mechanical or electrical characteristics of the medium or environment through which the wave propagates. It doesn't depend on the wave's frequency or wavelength.
What three factors affect a wave?
heat,wind and lunar position
