Question:

Assume that the speed of sound, c, in a fluid depends on an elastic modulus, Eu, with dimensions FL-2, and the fluid density, p, in the form c = (Ev)a(p)b. If this is to be a dimensionally homogeneous equation, what are the values for a and b? Is your result consistence with the standard formula for the speed of sound?
