Question

Complete the statement.

The speed of sound is directly affected by the temperature of the medium. The hotter the medium the (1.)_______ the sound travels. Heat,just like sound, is a form of kinetic energy. At higher temperatures, particles have (2.)______ energy (kinetic) and thus, vibrate (3.)_______. And when particles vibrate faster, there will be (4.)_______ collisions per unit time. With more collisions per unit time, (5.)______ is transferred more efficiently resulting in sound traveling quickly. At 0°C, the speed of sound in air is (6.)________ m/s. The speed of sound is dependent on temperature of the medium where an increase is
observed with an (7.)________ in temperature. Specifically, the speed of sound increases by (8.)_________ m/s with every increase of 1.0°C On the other hand, when sound propagates in air where the temperature changes with altitude, sound bends towards the (9.)________ region. In this case, refraction happens. The refraction is due to the different refractive indices of air because of the difference in (10​.)_______.

Answer 1

The speed of sound also depends on the temperature of the medium. The hotter the medium is, the faster its particles move and therefore the quicker the sound will travel through the medium. When we heat a substance, the particles in that substance have more kinetic energy and vibrate or move faster.
