No. The amplitude of the sound (and therefore its loudness) will decrease at greater distances; the speed will remain constant (assuming other factors, such as the density of air and the temperature, are constant).

No, the speed of sound is primarily determined by the medium through which it travels (e.g., air, water, or solid materials) rather than the distance it travels. In general, sound travels faster in denser materials and slower in less dense materials.
by causeing larger sound waves through objects
Well speed of sound in air at room temperature is 350 m/s . It depends on the density of the medium. Sound cannot propagate through vacuum. Speed of sound is directly proportional to the temperature of the medium.
The speed of any mechanical wave depends on the density of the medium. Since solids are the densest, the speed of sound is minimum in solids. It is the maximum in gases, since the medium is the least densest.
Pressure does not make any change in the speed of sound But temperature affects it. Velocity is proportional to the square root of kelvin temperature Humidity also affects the speed of sound. Higher the humidity more the speed
The speed of sound is approximately 767 mph, so traveling at Mach 2 would be twice the speed of sound. Therefore, you would be traveling two times faster than the speed of sound.
