Question:

Assume that water follows Eq. (1.19) with n ≈ 7 and B ≈ 3000. Compute the bulk modulus (in kPa) and the speed of sound (in m/s) at (a) 1 atm; and (b) 1100 atm (the deepest part of the ocean). (c) Compute the speed of sound at 20°C and 9000 atm and compare with the measured value of 2650 m/s (A. H. Smith and A. W. Lawson, J. Chem. Phys., vol. 22, 1954, p. 351).
