1.	Assertion : The basic of Laplace correction was that, exchange of heat between the region of compression and rarefaction in air is not possible. Reason : Air is a bad conductor of heat and velocity of soundin air is large.A. If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct expleanation of assertion.B. If both assertion and reason are true and reason is not the correct expleanation of assertion.C. If assertion is true but reason is false.D. If assertion and reason both are false.
Answer» Correct Answer - C Accordin to Laplace, the changes in pressure and volume of a gas, when sound waves propagated through it, are not isothermal, but adiabatic. A gas is a bad conductor of heat. It does not allow the free exchange of heat between compressed layer, rarefied layer and surrounding.
