Why molecules don't have the same speed at particular temperature?

Molecules in a substance have different speeds at a particular temperature due to their varying masses and kinetic energies. Temperature is a measure of average kinetic energy, so molecules with lighter masses will move faster than molecules with heavier masses, depending on the temperature. This variability in speed contributes to the overall distribution of molecular velocities within a substance.


On what factors does the speed of sound depend?

Mostly on temperature and composition of the medium it is propagating through. You may not think temperature, but it does play a major role. There is also a weak dependence on frequency (pitch) and pressure. The propagation of sound depends on molecules moving and pushing against other molecules. Different substances have different resistances to molecules pushing on other molecules. Density also affects how much the molecules resist being pushed around - so the speed of sound depends on that. Temperature affects density and also the inter-molecular forces that influence how the molecules resist being pushed around and how freely they will move and push against other molecules (thus propagating the sound wave). The dependency on pressure comes into play particularly in gases when the gas gets compressed enough to have a noticeable deviation from ideal gas behavior. The dependence on frequency has to do with the fact that gases are made up of molecules, which respond differently to different frequencies depending on the harmonic frequencies of the vibrations of the atoms in the molecules. Note that in solids, the speed of sound can also be affected by the structure of the solid - traveling at a different speed when moving "with the grain" than they do when moving "across the grain".


Could you use the strength of gravity between two masses to find out your speed?

No. The strength of gravity between two masses has no relation to their speed. Maybe if you could measure the rate at which the gravitational force is changing, you might have a chance of relating it to speed. But you'd also need to know the masses involved, and probably their sizes too. Forget about it.


What effect does the obsence of heat have on air molecules?

The absence of heat causes air molecules to lose energy and slow down, leading to a decrease in their kinetic energy and movement. This can result in a decrease in air pressure, density, and volume. Ultimately, the absence of heat can lead to a decrease in temperature and the formation of colder air masses.


How does the speed of light change when it enters the water?

That would depend what it enters from. If the light is transitioning from air to water,its speed decreases. If it's going from jello to water, its speed increases.

The different molecules that make up the air in a room have on average the same kinetic energy how does the speed of the different air molecules depend on their masses?

According to the kinetic theory of gases, the average kinetic energy of gas molecules in a room is proportional to temperature, not mass. However, the speed of individual gas molecules is inversely proportional to their mass - lighter molecules will move faster on average compared to heavier molecules at the same temperature. This is because kinetic energy is distributed among all molecules, and lighter molecules can move faster with the same amount of kinetic energy.

In vacuum, all masses big and small fall with the same acceleration, and reach the same speed in the same amount of time.


What is the average speed of a gaseous molecule in a given environment?

The average speed of a gaseous molecule in a given environment is determined by its temperature and mass. Generally, the average speed of gas molecules increases with higher temperatures and decreases with heavier masses.

Which factors does molecular speed depend on?

Molecular speed depends on temperature, molecular mass/weight, and the medium in which the molecules are moving. An increase in temperature generally increases molecular speed, while higher molecular mass tends to decrease speed. Additionally, molecules tend to move faster in lighter or less dense media.

What is the equivalent wavelength of 1000 Hz?

That would also depend on the speed of the wave. Speed = wavelength x frequency.That would also depend on the speed of the wave. Speed = wavelength x frequency.That would also depend on the speed of the wave. Speed = wavelength x frequency.That would also depend on the speed of the wave. Speed = wavelength x frequency.


If two different masses have the same kinetic energy their momenta is?

... different. Kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the speed, wherease momentum is proportional to the speed.
