- Speed of sound - Wikipedia
The speed of sound is the distance travelled per unit of time by a sound wave as it propagates through an elastic medium More simply, the speed of sound is how fast vibrations travel At 20 °C (68 °F), the speed of sound in air is about 343 m s (1,125 ft s; 1,235 km h; 767 mph; 667 kn), or 1 km in 2 92 s or one mile in 4 69 s
- Speeds of sound of the elements - Wikipedia
The speed of sound in any chemical element in the fluid phase has one temperature-dependent value In the solid phase, different types of sound wave may be propagated, each with its own speed: among these types of wave are longitudinal (as in fluids), transversal, and (along a surface or plate) extensional [1]
- Speed of sound - Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The speed of sound is 1,235 kilometres (767 mi) per hour or 343 metres (1,125 ft) per second in dry air in room temperature It travels at 1500 meters per second through water Sound moves faster through liquids and solids than air, since they have a larger specific modulus, meaning they are stiffer
- Mach number - Wikipedia
At Mach 0 65, u is 65% of the speed of sound (subsonic), and, at Mach 1 35, u is 35% faster than the speed of sound (supersonic) The local speed of sound, and hence the Mach number, depends on the temperature of the surrounding gas
- Speed of sound - Wikiwand
In colloquial speech, speed of sound refers to the speed of sound waves in air However, the speed of sound varies from substance to substance: typically, sound travels most slowly in gases, faster in liquids, and fastest in solids

More commonly the term refers to the speed of sound in air The speed varies depending on atmospheric conditions; the most important factor is the temperature Humidity has very little effect on the speed of sound, while the static sound pressure (air pressure) has none
