Want this question answered?
The speed of sound depends only on the temperature of the gas for an ideal gas. This implies that the ambient pressure on top of a mountain doesn't affect the propagation of sound in air. So the speed of sound should be larger in hot desert air compared to cold air on a mountain top.
Because the molecules are less dense and they vibrate faster letting sound travel faster
Sound travels faster through denser materials. The density of the air (because of the air pressure) is weaker at the top of the mountain, and as such sound has a harder time travelling.
Sound DOES travel faster in solids than in gases. The higher the density of the medium, the faster the sound travels.
no. sound is sound so how on earth can it be faster than itself? answer that!

NO they can not travel faster than sound in thunder and lightning

Sound travels faster in moist air
yes, sound does travel faster in some gases, but it usally dipends on the temperature. it trave l faster in warm air.
They travel faster through solids
Sound travels faster in water thanin air.
sound travels faster through steel
Sound travels faster through solids because, molecules in solids are much closer together so this allows sound waves to travel faster.
