Question

If V subscript m end subscript is the velocity of sound in moist air, V subscript d end subscriptis the velocity of sound in dry air, under identical conditions of pressure and temperature

  1. V subscript m end subscript less than V subscript d end subscript    
  2. V subscript m end subscript greater than V subscript d end subscript    
  3. V subscript m end subscript V subscript d end subscript equals 1    
  4. V subscript m end subscript equals V subscript d end subscript    

The correct answer is: V subscript m end subscript greater than V subscript d end subscript


    From the relation, v subscript m end subscript equals square root of fraction numerator gamma p over denominator rho end fraction end root
    Where, p=pressure of the gas
    Ρ=density of the gas
    Since, density of moist air is less than that of dry air
    i.e., rho subscript m end subscript less than rho subscript d end subscript
    Therefore, v subscript m end subscript greater than v subscript d end subscript
