Speed of sound waves in a fluid depends
A. directly on density of the medium
B. square of Bulk modulus of the medium
C. inversly on the square root of density
D. directly on the square root of bulk modulus of the medium
A. directly on density of the medium
B. square of Bulk modulus of the medium
C. inversly on the square root of density
D. directly on the square root of bulk modulus of the medium
Correct Answer – C::D
Speed of sound waves in a fluid is given by
`v=sqrt((B)/(rho))`, where B is Bulk modulus and `rho` is density of the medium.
Clearly, `” ” Vprop(1)/(sqrt(rho))” “` [ `:.` for any B,=constant]
and `” ” Vpropsqrt(B)” “` [ `:.` medium, `rho` = constant ]
