write how the velocity of sound varies with temperature and density of air
Answers
Explanation:
The speed of sound in a material, particularly in a gas or liquid, varies with temperature because a change in temperature affects the material's density. In air, for example, the speed of sound increases with an increase in temperature
Speed of sound depend upon both temperature and density (If we increase the temperature and lower the density of a medium , i.e its put less resistance on the sound waves by means of this they travel faster)
Explanation:
Temperature effects the speed of sound by changing the density of the given medium in which light can travel.
As we known sound waves needs a medium in order to travel. A medium may be solid, liquid or a gas.
The speed of sound depends upon both the density and elasticity of the given medium.
When we decrease the density and elasticity increases then the sound is allowed to travel faster .
If we increase the temperature and lower the density of a medium , i.e its put less resistance on the sound waves by means of this they travel faster
