find the speed of sound in a diatomic ideal gas that has a density of 3.50kg/m3 and a pressure of 215 kPa.

OpenStudy (shamim):

The required formula is v=root(gamma*p/rho)

OpenStudy (shamim):

v=velicity of sound

OpenStudy (shamim):

Gamma=constant

OpenStudy (shamim):

P=215kpa rho=3.50kg/m^3 v=?

OpenStudy (shamim):

Actually i can not remember the value of gamma for a diatomic ideal gas

OpenStudy (shamim):

I think its given in ur book

OpenStudy (shamim):

Response plz!!!!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry for delay, gamma is 1,40 for diatomic gasses

OpenStudy (shamim):

Ok.. Calculate v=?

OpenStudy (shamim):

P=215kpa=?N/m^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my book says that the formula for v is root(gamma Rthe gas costant temperature)/(Mass)

OpenStudy (shamim):

But u hv to use my formula here according to given data

OpenStudy (shamim):

U can try my equation. I think u will get right answer!!!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok! Thanks, I will let you know when I will have the answer! Thanks! :)

OpenStudy (shamim):

Welcome!!!!!

OpenStudy (shamim):
