To solve the problem of finding the relation between the speeds of sound in oxygen and hydrogen given that the density of oxygen is 16 times the density of hydrogen, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Define the Densities**: Let the density of hydrogen be \( \rho_H \). Then, the density of oxygen can be expressed as: \[ \rho_O = 16 \rho_H ...
