The speed of ound at room temperature?

The speed of sound at room temperature (around 20 degrees Celsius) is approximately 343 meters per second in air. The speed varies depending on the medium through which sound is traveling, with sound traveling faster in denser materials.


Velocity of sound depends on?

The medium through which it is propagating. For exampl if the sound waves are travelling in air they will move slower than those travelling through a wall speed of sound in solids > speed of sound in liquids > speed of sound in gases


Does the temperature of water affect the pitch of sound?

Presumably you mean sound traveling through water. Temperature affects the density of water, therefore the speed of sound in water, and pitch is frequency, so yes, temperature affects pitch.


How fast is sound energy?

It depends on the substance the sound is traveling through. If the sound is traveling through air, it is usually about 800km/h. If it is traveling through water, the speed is about 4000km/h. If it is traveling through cosmos, its speed is 0km/h.


The speed of sound traveling thruogh steel is much more than the speed traveling through air?

False


The speed of sound, like all waves, depends on the ____ through which it travels?

Sound travels at different speeds depending on what it is traveling through. Of the three mediums (gas, liquid, and solid) sound waves travel the slowest through gases, faster through liquids, and fastest through solids. Temperature also affects the speed of sound.


When the temperature is 25 degrees Celsius what is the approximate velocity of a sound wave traveling through the air?

The approximate speed of sound in air at 25°C is 346.45 m/s².


How does the temperature of a material affect the speed of sound passing through it?

Temperature is a fact for speed. Speed is increasing with the temperature.


How does temperature of a material affect the speed of sound passing through it?

Temperature is a fact for speed. Speed is increasing with the temperature.


What is the non-dimensional property that is 1 at the speed of sound?

The non-dimensional property that is 1 at the speed of sound is the Mach number. It is the ratio of an object's speed to the speed of sound in the medium it is traveling through. A Mach number of 1 means the object is traveling at the speed of sound.


How fast does a loud sound travel?

The speed of sound varies depending on the medium it is traveling through. In general, sound travels at a speed of approximately 343 meters per second (1235 kilometers per hour) in air at room temperature and pressure.


How fast is the sound barrier?

I guess you refer to the speed of sound. The speed of sound depends on the material sounds goes through, as well as temperature, pressure, humidity, among others. For example, the speed of sound in air is around 350 meters/second; in some other materials it can be several times as fast.
