Because gas molecules move more slowly at colder temperatures, that slows the speed of sound; sound moves faster through warmer air]]> 2017-11-15 22:32:27 UTC https://padlet.com/3059491/tqcmeyz1cmax/wish/207466549 3059491 https://padlet.com/3059491/tqcmeyz1cmax/wish/207467011 a wave vibrating at right angles to the direction of its propagation.

While waves can move over long distances, the movement of the medium of transmission—the material—is limited. Therefore, the oscillating material does not move far from its initial equilibrium position.
