Air temperature in the Rajasthan deserrt...

Air temperature in the Rajasthan deserrt can reach `46^(@)C`. What is the velocity of sound in air at that temperature ? `(V_(0)=331ms^(-1))`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Velocity of sound `v_(0)=331ms^(-1)`
Air temperature , `T=46^(@)C`
Velocity of sound in air temperature `v_(T)=(v_(0)+0.61T)ms^(-1)`
`=331+(0.61xx46)`
`=331+28.06`
`v_(T)=359.06ms^(-1)`
