The speed of sound in a particular gas at a temperature `27""^(@)C` is 340 m/s. Then, the speed of sound in the same gas at a temperature `90""^(@)C` is:

A

`54^(@)C`

B

`327^(@)C`

C

`927^(@)C`

D

`108^(@)C`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

In a gas, `V=sqrt((gammaRT)/M)rArr V alpha sqrt(T)`
`rArr V/(2V)=sqrt(300/T)`
`rArr T=300xx4=1200 K`
`= 927^(@)C`
