Sound needs a medium to travel?

Yes. Sound requires a medium to travel in.It is comprised of pressure waves (a mechanical phenomenon). Sound requires something to compress and rarefy (a medium). Sound pressure, or acoustic pressure, is the local pressure deviation from the ambient (average, or equilibrium) atmospheric pressure.Sound pressure can be measured using a microphone in air and a hydrophone in water. The SI unit for sound pressure is the pascal (symbol: Pa). The effective sound pressure is the root mean square of the instantaneous sound pressure over a given interval of time (or space). Sound can't travel in a vacuum because it lacks the necessary medium.


Does the frequency of a wave remain constant if the medium temperature and pressure do not change?

no


How the barometer is used?

A barometer is advice used to atmospheric pressure. They are commonly contain water, air, or mercury. The medium used raises and falls in a tube with a reservoir at the base. The pressure from the outside air pushes on the medium in the exposed reservoir. This push is what causes the medium raise or fall. The measure of the barometer can indicate local weather patterns. High pressure indicates fair weather, while low pressure indicates a storm.


Are pressure waves longitudinal waves?

Longitudinal waves travel in a medium due to alternate compression & rarefactions ie. they travel due to variation in pressure.


What material can sound energy travel through slowly?

The more closely packed molecules are in a medium, the faster sound travels through the medium, so sound travels slowest through a gas under low pressure.
