If `V_(2)andV_(1)` are the velocity of sound in soid and liquid, respectively, then `V_(1)/V_(2)`.

A

`le1`

B

`gt1`

C

`lt1`

D

`=1`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Velocity of sound in solid `(V_(1))gt` velocity in liquid
`thereforeV_(1)/(V_(2))gt1`
Hence, the correct option is (b).
