Question
If v stands for velocity of sound, E is elasticity and d the density, then find x in the equation ν = (d/E)ˣ
Correct Answer
Option D is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
The velocity of sound in a medium is given by v = √(E/d) = (E/d)¹/² = (d/E)⁻¹/². Therefore, x = -1/2.
Hint
Recall the formula for the speed of sound in a medium: v = √(E/ρ).
