The speed of sound in oxygen (O_(2)) at a certain temperature 66" ms"^(-1), The speed of sound in helium (He) at the same temperature will be assume both gases to be ideal)

Answer»

`421 MS^(-1)`
`500 ms^(-1)`
`650 ms^(-1)`
`300 ms^(-1)`

Solution :`(V_(He))/(V_(0_(2)))=sqrt((lamda_(He))/(lamda_(0_(2)))xx (M_(0_(2)))/(M_(He)))=sqrt((1.67)/(1.4)xx(32)/(4))`
`V_(He) =460xx(sqrt(1.67))/(1.4)xx8=1420` m/s.
So, correct CHOICE is (a).
