The speed of sound in hydrogen is `1270 ms^(-1)` at temperature T. the speed at the same T in a mixture of oxygen and hydrogen mixed in a volume ratio 1:4 will be ?A. `317"ms"^(-1)`B. `635"ms"^(-1)`C. `830"ms"^(-1)`D. `950"ms"^(-1)` |
Answer» Correct Answer - B As given , the volumes of hydrogen and oxygen in a mixture is `4:1` , so let V be the volume of oxygen . The volume of hydrogen will be 4 V .If `rho_(m)` be the density of mixture, then `rho_(m)=(4Vxx1+Vxx16)/(5V)=4` `As " " vprop((1)/(rho))^(1//2)` `therefore"Velocity in mixture"=(1270)/((4)^(1//2))=635ms^(-1)` |
