When the source of sound is moving its speed increases true or false?

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.


What is the relationship connecting the frequency of the sound source with the wavelength and the speed of sound in air?

The frequency of a sound source is directly related to the wavelength and the speed of sound in air through the equation: speed of sound = frequency x wavelength. As the frequency of the sound increases, the wavelength decreases, and vice versa, provided the speed of sound remains constant in the medium.


What happens to the speed of sound if the temperature of the medium increases?

If the temperature of the medium increases, the speed of sound also increases. This is because sound travels faster in warmer air due to increased molecular motion and faster propagation of sound waves.


How speed of sound increases wave length?

The speed of sound depends on the medium the waves pass through, and is a fundamental property of the material. It itself cannot increase wave length as it is merely a property and not an active force that can modify anything.


Does speed increase for an observer that stays in one spot when the source of a sound is moving?

No, the speed of sound is constant in a medium, so the speed of sound heard by an observer staying in one spot does not change if the source of the sound is moving. The frequency and wavelength of the sound may be affected by the motion of the source, but not the speed.

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

When the temperature of a medium increases the speed of sound decreases true or false?

False. In general, the speed of sound increases as the temperature of a medium increases. This is because higher temperatures lead to greater molecular motion, which increases the speed at which sound waves can travel through the medium.


As the temperature of a medium increases the rate of speed of sound through the medium what?

The speed of sound through the medium also increases.


What happens to the speed of a sound wave as distance increases?

Nothing does. The speed of the sound wave depends only on the medium through which it's traveling. As long as it remains in the same stuff, its speed is constant, no matter how far it has come from its source.


How does the speed of sound in air compare to the speed of sound in other materials?

As a rule the speed of sound increases with increasing density of the medium.


How speed of sound increases wave length?

The speed of sound depends on the medium the waves pass through, and is a fundamental property of the material. It itself cannot increase wave length as it is merely a property and not an active force that can modify anything.


How does increasing the temperature affect the speed of sound in the air?

Speed of sound increases, when temperature increases. Speed of sound in air is c ≈ 331 + 0.6 × T. T = Temperature in °C. Speed of sound in air at 20°C is c ≈ 331 + 0.6 × 20 = 343 m/s.


What happen to the speed of sound as temperature increases?

Scroll down to related links and look at "Speed of sound - Wikipedia". Look at the table with "speed of sound c".
