The word Velocity has to do with Speed Sound Distance Thickness Weight?
Boobrock
Velocity is a vector quantity that measures speed (and also includes direction).
55 mph is a speed.
55mph North is a velocity.

Scientific notation of velocity of sound?
The velocity of sound in air at sea level at normal temperature and pressure is 3.4329 metres/second.
What is the function of a megaphone?
megaphones are a device that loud-ens sound to a distance.
What formula is Vfx λ?
It looks a little like V = f x λ, which to me means velocity = frequency multiplied by wavelength. For example, with sound, you could have a frequency of 100Hz and a wavelength of 3.4m giving a velocity of 340m/s. Alternatively you could rearrange the equation if the velocity is know but the frequency or wavelength isn't
What is the distance sound travels in one hour?
About 767 miles, depending on the temperature and density of the air.
What is the velocity of a wave with a frequency of 6 hertz and a wavelength of 2 meters?
Speed = (wavelength) x (frequency) = (2 x 6) = 12 meters per second.That's the wave's speed. "Velocity" is something different, not just a wordto use when you mean "speed" but you want to sound more technical.
What should be the weight of the person projected with velocity of sound in vacuum and travellig millions of kilometer of distance?
The force (weight) between the person and earth diminishes with distance. eg double the distance, quarter the force.
Why does the pitch of a sound change as the source of the sound that moves past you?
Decreasing velocity, and distance.
What is the difference between sound in water and sound in air?
Velocity (distance-time), Magnitude (volume) and Density (echo/harmonic) signatures differ.
Why thickness varies in percussion instruments?
Thickness affects sound.
Velocity of sound in acetone?
Velocity of sound in Acetone is about 1174 m/s
What is the approximate velocity of sound in the air?
the velocity of sound in the air is 300m/s
What is the approximate velocity of the sound in air?
the velocity of sound in the air is 300m/s
When was Velocity of Sound created?
Velocity of Sound was created on 2002-10-08.
Write an experiment to find the velocity of sound?

Do all frequencies of sound travel with the same velocity?
Yes, they do. The frequency of a sound doesn't effect the speed at which it moves; i.e. approx 330meters per second (through air). For example; a sound with a frequency of 600Hz has the same velocity as a sound with frequency 300Hz, the difference being that the sound at 300Hz would have half as many wavelengths in the same distance from source as the sound at 600Hz.
How is an echo sounder used to determine the bathymetry of the ocean floor?
They send down a sound wave (whose velocity they know) and measure how much time it takes for it to return. Velocity=Distance/time Distance=Velocity*time They divide the distance by 2 (since the sonar wave has to return as well.) They make thousands of these measurements to make a map of the ocean floor based on these distances.
Give the effect of density on velocity of sound?
as density of medium increase velocity of sound decreases.
