To solve the problem of calculating the velocity of sound in damped air containing 10% vapor by volume, we will follow these steps:
### Step 1: Understand the Composition of the Mixture
The damped air consists of 10% aqueous vapor and 90% dry air by volume. If we consider a total volume of the mixture as 100V, then:
- Volume of dry air = 90V
- Volume of aqueous vapor = 10V
### Step 2: Define the Densities
