What is the effect of temperature on the velocity of sound?Derive the relation.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We know that, velocity of sound in air:
`v prop sqrt(T)`
It means, velocity of sound will increase if the temperature of air is increased. Greater the temperature, greater will be the velocity. This is the reason, why velocity of sound is greater on a hot day than on a cold day.
