Is it the speed or the size of the vibration that changes the pitch of a sound?
Neither. Speed of sound waves doesn't change unless there is a change in the medium (substance through which the wave moves). the size of the vibration determines how loud the sound is. the length of the vibration is what determines the pitch.
What are the characteristic of sounds?
frequency,wavelength,amplitude,sound pressure,sound intensity,speed of sound,and direction
How does the speed of atoms in a substance related to its temperature?
If there is an increase in the temperature of a substance, that indicates the increase in vibration and speed of the particles. If there is a decrease in the temperature of a substance, that indicates the decrease in vibration and speed of the particles.
How does the speed of sound in air compare to the speed of sound in solid?
The speed of sound in a solid is faster than the speed of sound in air.
Why does sound travel faster through denser materials?
sound unlike light requires a medium to travel.sound propagates from one place to other by causing molecules to vibrate, as molecules of solid are closest vibration produced is maximum,hence speed is maximum
What is the quality determined by the speed of vibration of sound waves?
heat

Is The pitch of a sound is determined by its wavelength and speed together or its?
The pitch of a sound can be determined by its frequencyalone.
The speed of what tells whether a sound will be a high or low pitch?
The speed of the vibration. High speed vibration = high frequency = short wavelength = high pitch. Low speed vibration = low frequency = long waves = low pitch.
What determined the speed of sound?
In what medium it is transfered.
The pitch of a sound is determined by its and speed together or its frequency alone?
The pitch of a sound can be determined by its frequency alone.
What makes the buzzing sound on a honeybee?
The high speed flapping of their wings makes a vibration sound that is the 'buzz' that you can hear.
Who determined the speed of sound in water?
it was faucault who first measured the speed of light in water ......
What are two factors that affect sound quality?
Speed of Sound and frequency
The pitch of a sound is determined by its wavelength and speed together or its alone?
The pitch of a sound can be determined by its frequencyalone.
What is the definition of speed of sound?
Sound is a vibration, a change in presure. In air that vibration travels at about 700 mph ... it varies with temprature and presure (average) of the air. In water it's almost 4 times as fast.
Seeming as the speed of sound in air speeds up if the temperature rises therefore how hot would you have to heat the air up until the speed of sound through that air is equal to the speed of light?
It never would. Sound is vibration through some physical medium; the speed of sound is related to the speed of the vibrations. No physical medium can move at the speed of light, so the speed of sound could never get there.
