Does barometric pressure slow sound waves?

0

Sound Waves can be measured in amplitude and frequency where amplitude can be variable by the forces on it. Pressure is Force per unit Area therefore force and pressure have a direct effect on sound waves. At very high pressures you could see a slowing effect in sound waves, although I doubt you could see a high enough variance in the barometric pressure to actually see a significant enough difference in the speed of the sound waves to make any empirical assumptions.
