Question

Factors affecting speed of sound in physics

Answer 1

a factor affecting the speed of sound is
the temperature and density of the substance

Answer 2

The factors affecting the speed of sound in a medium are discussed below:-

a.) Elasticity ( V ∝ √E, where V is the speed of sound and E is the modulus of elasticity )
The characteristics of medium particles because of which it regains its original form or position is called elasticity.

b.) Density ( V ∝ 1/√d, where V is the speed of sound and d is the density of the medium )
Density is the characteristic of an object that tells us that how much sense or lighter an object is.
