Sound: the Speed of Sound

The video explores factors influencing the speed of sound, emphasizing that sound speed is determined by the medium, not the source. It highlights that sound travels faster in warm air due to faster molecular movement. Examples are given comparing sound speed on a winter day at 0°C (331 m/s) and a summer day at 25°C (346 m/s). Temperature is a key factor, but not the only one affecting sound speed.
