Speed of sound waves in a fluid depends

A

directly on density of the medium.

B

square of Bulk modulus of the medium.

C

inversely on the square root of density.

D

directly on the square root ob bulk modulus of the medium.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C, D
According to Newton's formula for velocity of sound in a fluid,
`upsilon=sqrt((B_(a))/(rho))`
`upsilonprop sqrt(B_(a))` and `upsilon prop (1)/(sqrt(rho))`
Choice (c) and (d) are correct.
