You use a very sensitive instrument to measure the speed of sound in your front yard in December. You repeat the test in August

<h2>Answer: faster </h2>
The speed of sound varies depending on the medium through which the sound waves travel. In addition, it varies with changes in the temperature of the medium. This is because an <u>increase in temperature means that the frequency of interactions between the particles that transport the vibration increases</u>, hence this increase in activity increases the speed. That is why the speed of sound in a gas is not constant, but depends on the temperature.
So, if we want <u>the speed of sound in a gas to increase</u>, the<u> temperature</u> of that gas must <u>increase</u>, as well.
For example, the higher the air temperature, the greater the velocity of propagation. Experiments have shown that the speed of sound in air increases for every
increase in temperature.
Therefore:

Answer: The question is incomplete or some details are missing. Here is the complete question ; (a) The driver of a car slams on the brakes when he sees a tree blocking the road. The car slows uniformly with acceleration of −5.55 m/s2 for 4.05 s, making straight skid marks 63.0 m long, all the way to the tree. With what speed (in m/s) does the car then strike the tree? m/s
(b) What If? If the car has the same initial velocity, and if the driver slams on the brakes at the same distance from the tree, then what would the acceleration need to be (in m/s2) so that the car narrowly avoids a collision? m/s2
a ) With what speed (in m/s) does the car then strike the tree? m/s = 4.3125m/s
b) then what would the acceleration need to be (in m/s2) so that the car narrowly avoids a collision? m/s2 = -5.696m/s2
