The speed of sound varies in different mediums and the speed of sound in a medium depends mainly on the elasticity and density of the medium. The speed of sound is most commonly in solid, then in liquid and then in gas. The speed of sound in a medium does not depend on the frequency. So take this quiz and increase your knowledge about speed of sound.
