Sound requires the physical compression and expansion of molecules to be transmitted, it is not electromagnetic energy like light and microwaves. It therefore cannot be transmitted through a vacuum so it cannot have a velocity in space

What determines the velocity of sound wave?

Sound waves are longitudinal waves in air. Velocity of sound waves in air at NTP = 332 m/s. Sound waves cannot pass through free space they essentially needs material medium for their propagation.


Is Sound listen greater in solids or in air?

Sound velocity is greatest in solids, and the solid with the highest velocity of sound is metallic Beryllium.


Give the effect of density on velocity of sound?

As density increases, the velocity of sound increases because there are more particles for the sound wave to travel through. Conversely, if the density decreases, the velocity of sound will also decrease because there are fewer particles for the sound wave to travel through.


The velocity of a sound wave travel though the air is approximately?

Velocity of sound in air is 324m/s.


Effect of velocity of medium on velocity of sound?

Speed of sound has no effect on the particle velocity. Call velocity of sound better speed of sound. Call sound velocity better particle velocity. Velocity of sound is not sound velocity.


What is the full meaning of velocity?

What is the excape velocity on earth?

The escape velocity on Earth is approximately 11.2 kilometers per second (33 times the speed of sound). This is the speed required for an object to break free from Earth's gravitational pull and escape into space.


The velocity of sound in vacuum is?

The velocity of sound in vacuum is 0 m/s because sound requires a medium, such as air or water, to travel through. In the absence of a medium, sound waves cannot propagate and therefore, there is no velocity of sound in vacuum.


Discuss effect of temperature on the velocity of sound?

Scroll down to related links and look at "Speed of sound - Wikipedia". There is a table of the effects of the temperature on sound. Don't say "velocity of sound", call it "speed of sound".
