1.	If the density of oxygen is 16 times that of hydrogen , what will be the ratio of the velocities of sound in them ?
Answer» `1 : 4` `4 :1` `2 : 1` `1 : 16` Solution :Using eq. `(v_(1))/(v_(2)) = sqrt((rho_(2))/(rho_(1))) (V_(O_(2)))/(V_(H_(2))) = sqrt((rho_(H_(2)))/(rho_(O_(2)))) = sqrt((1)/(16)) = (1)/(4)`
