The temperature at which the speed of sound in air becomes double of its value at `0^(@)C` is

A

`1092^(@) C`

B

`819 K`

C

`819^(@) C`

D

`546^(@) C`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`v prop sqrt(T)`
`(v_(2))/(v_(1)) = sqrt(T_(2)/T_(1)) = sqrt(T_(2)/273)`
`T_(2) = 4 xx 273 = 1092 K`
`= 1092 - 273 = 819^(@) C`
