Use the general relation for the speed of sound in Equation 13.3 together with the ideal gas
Question:
Use the general relation for the speed of sound in Equation 13.3 together with the ideal gas law (see Chapter 15 if you need a refresher on the ideal gas law) to show that the speed of sound in a gas can be written as vsound = √P/ρ where P is the pressure. Can you give an intuitive explanation of why vsound increases as the pressure is increased?
