False
True. Sound waves are indeed an example of longitudinal waves. In a longitudinal wave, the particles of the medium vibrate parallel to the direction of wave movement. This is how sound travels through air, water, and other mediums.
False. Sound travels faster and more efficiently through liquids than through gases because liquids are denser and allow sound waves to propagate more quickly.
False. The speed of sound in air is constant, around 343 meters per second. When the source of sound is moving, it can affect the frequency and intensity of the sound, but not the speed at which the sound travels.
False. While sound energy does travel in waves, other forms of energy, such as light and water waves, also travel in wave patterns.
Yes, the quality of sound can indeed be influenced by the temperature, stiffness, and density of the medium through which it travels. Changes in these properties can affect the speed and propagation of sound waves, which in turn can impact the clarity and fidelity of the sound being transmitted. Generally, sound travels faster and with less distortion in mediums that are denser, stiffer, and at moderate temperatures.

True
False. Newton's work did not involve the speed of light and sound. The concept of constant speed of light was later formulated by Einstein in his theory of relativity. The speed of sound can vary depending on the medium it travels through.
