What factor will increase the speed of a sound wave in the air?
Speed of sound would increase as the temperature of the air increases Speed of sound increases as humidity of air increases Speed of sound is affected by the density of the air. As density increases velocity of sound decreases
Which is faster the speed of sound or the speed of air?
The speed of sound depends on the air factors around it
Do speed of sound increases with increasing temperature in the ear?
Sound does travel slightly faster as air temperature increases and this applies when the sound enters the ear just as it does in any other air. Once the sound has passed the ear drum, air is no longer the medium in which the sound travels so air temperature no longer affects the speed of sound.
How does the speed of sound in air compare to the speed of sound in solid?
The speed of sound in air is approximately 343 meters per second, while the speed of sound in solids can vary but is generally higher than in air. In solids, sound waves travel faster due to the denser medium and stronger intermolecular bonds.
Why velocity of sound in moist air as compared to dry air is more?
The velocity of sound in moist air is higher than in dry air because the presence of water vapor in moist air increases the density and compressibility of the air. This results in faster sound propagation as the speed of sound is directly proportional to the square root of the medium's density.
Why are sound waves not polarized?
Sound waves (in gas, liquid and sometimes in solid) are longitudinal, not transversal. They cannot be polarised. Sound waves (sometimes in solid) are always "polarised" as the medium must move in a single plane perpendicular to the direction of travel.
Are sound waves longitudinal in solids?
No Sound waves are longitudinal. Being longitudinal they cannot be POLARISED.
Can longitudinal wave be polarised?
No, the longitudinal wave can't be polarised. Because polarisation means lack of symmetry. But longitudinal waves are symmetrical from all the sides of vision. This is because their plane of propagation and vibration is same. this wave loks same from all the sides.
What are the different types of Ray Ban Lenses?
In China Polarised Ray ban is made of Plastic Lens. If not polarised,than be glass lens. Any way you may feel light when wearing polarised plastic lens and feel a little heavy in glass lens. But polarised is easy to be scratched. So should be careful when wearing . Hope this can help you !!
Do sound waves vibrate the air?
No. Vibrating air IS sound waves. With no atmosphere (no air, like in space), there are no sound waves.
Does air have sound?
Air itself does not produce sound, but sound travels through the air as a medium. When an object vibrates, it creates sound waves that travel through the air until they reach our ears, allowing us to hear the sound.
Why is there no sound in a vaccuum?
sound is created because of vibrations in air. i.e The change of vibrations in air creates sound. In vacuum there is no air. So it is not possible to create sound in vaccum.
Do air molecules make sound?
No, air molecules themselves do not make sound. Sound is produced when an object vibrates and causes air molecules to vibrate around it, creating sound waves that travel through the air.
Does air absorb sound?
Yes, air can absorb sound to some extent. Sound waves travel through air by compressing and decompressing the air molecules. The absorption of sound in air increases with higher frequencies, longer distances, and the presence of obstacles in the sound path.
Can sound waves travel through air?
Yes, sound waves can travel through air. Sound waves are mechanical waves that require a medium (like air, water, or solid materials) to propagate. In air, sound waves travel by compressing and rarefying air molecules as they move through the medium.
What is the approximate velocity of the sound in air?
the velocity of sound in the air is 300m/s
What is attached to a monitor to reduce eyestrain?
a polarised screen
