Nope. Sound is sound.

A frequency of a sound wave is merely how many high-points of the wave are contained within a given area, or another way to look at it is the distance between high-points (called peaks, where as low points are called troughs). The location of these peaks do not determine how fast the wave moves.

It depends on the medium. Certains solids will transmit sounds at certain frequencies -slightly- faster than other frequencies.
Recently, biologists discovered that elephants produce super-low frequency sounds to communicate over huge distances with other herds. Not only does this sound (which travel primarily thourgh the ground) travel further than regular sounds that is audible to us, but it also travels slightly faster.

Sound strikes about 1500 meters per second in seawater. that's about 15 football fields end-to-bring about a unmarried second. Sound strikes a lot extra slowly in air, at about 340 meters per second, in person-friendly words 3 football fields a second the speed that mild travels, three hundred,000 km/s, is the fastest that something has been measured to flow contained in the universe. that's an exceedingly extreme %(670 million miles per hour), yet no longer endless. So mild -- and in reality no longer something -- can commute from one element to a special promptly.

Nope .. the sound waves are traveling at the same speed ... they are just closer together.

All sound travels at the same speed, regrdless fo frequency(about 330m/s at sea level)

Why would it? Frequency is not a determinant of speed.

No, but UH sound does carry more energy than normal sound.

no, its just the size of the wave that is different.
