Solution

The correct options are
A Medium
D Temperature
The velocity of sound travelling through a medium, definitely depends on the medium. Hence the velocity of sound is affected by change in medium.
Velocity is directly proportional to the square root of the absolute temperature of the medium.
It is independant of the pressure of the medium.
In a given medium, sounds of different wavelengths travel with the same velocity, provided the physical properties of the medium remain the same.
