Speed of sound through a medium depends on
● temperature
● density of medium
● speed of wind
● humidy
● moisture
Speed of sound increases with increase in temperature. Because when temperature increases the molecules get higher energy and they vibrate quickly. Due to this vibration sound waves can travel fastly.

Sound waves are a longitudinal wave that have a speed of about 340 m/s when traveling through room temperature air. What is the
AlexFokin [52]

The wavelength of the wave is 0.055 m

Explanation:

The relationship between speed, frequency and wavelength of a wave is given by the wave equation:

v=f\lambda

where

v is the speed

f is the frequency

\lambda is the wavelength

For the sound wave in this problem we have

v = 340 m/s is the speed

f = 6,191 Hz is the frequency

Solving for \lambda, we find the wavelength:

\lambda=\frac{v}{f}=\frac{340}{6191}=0.055 m

Two identical blocks are heated to different temperatures. The blocks are placed so that they touch, and heat begins to flow bet
baherus [9]

The pair of blocks is insulated, so no energy escapes. The pair of temperatures possible is  95 +95 temperature blocks.

<h3>What is thermal equilibrium?</h3>

When two objects are in direct contact and transfer heat through conduction. When the both object attain same temperature after sometime, they are called in thermal equilibrium.

Two identical blocks are heated to different temperatures. The blocks are placed so that they touch, and heat begins to flow between blocks. The heat will continue to until and unless they have same temperatures. After they being isolated, the temperature of both will be same and no heat is transferred outside.

Thus, the pair of temperatures possible is  95 +95 temperature blocks.
