Sound is a vibration or disturbance which travels through any medium. It moves by transferring energy from one particle to another and can be heard easily when it reaches a person’s ear. For example, when an object vibrates then it transfers energy to the surrounding particles and as a result, makes them vibrate. Sound cannot travel through the vacuum due to the absence of particles to act as a medium. Sound travels only through a medium like water, air and solid. In this article, we will discuss sound waves and the speed of sound formula. Let us begin learning!

The speed of sound is defined as the travelled by the sound wave that propagates per unit time through an elastic medium. In a perpendicular medium, the speed of the sound depends on the elasticity and density of the medium. If the speed of the sound is greater then the elasticity is more and density is less.
