What else can I help you with?
Why does the water pressure of the water vapor in the atmosphere affects the speed of sound waves?
because there is water also moving in it and sound also moves in it so thats why water vapours affect our sound speed
How speed of sound of pure water compare with the speed of sound in ocean water?
In salt water that is free of air bubbles or suspended sediment, sound travels at about 1560 m/s. The speed of sound in seawater depends on pressure (hence depth), temperature (a change of 1 °C ~ 4 m/s),and empirical equations have been derived to accurately calculate sound speed from these variables. In pure water the speed of sound is less than in ocean water.
How does the speed of sound in tap water compare with the speed of sound in pure water?
For a liquid, we find that the speed of sound decreaseswith increasing density but increases with increasing bulk modulus. Increasing the dissolved solids will increase density, but also bulk modulus. In general, bulk modulus will increase "faster" with an increase in dissolved solids than density will increase. And this translates into a net increase in the speed of sound in water with increasing dissolved solids. Tap water has dissolved solids, so the speed of sound in tap water should be higher than it is in pure water at the same temperature and pressure.
What is the speed of sound in water vapour?
The speed of sound in water vapor is approximately 330 meters per second at room temperature. This speed can vary depending on the temperature and pressure of the vapor.
The speed in water is less than or greater than the speed of sound of air?
The speed of sound in water is greater than the speed of sound in air . For example, at 20 °C and 1 ATM pressure, the speed of sound in air is 343 m/s, and its speed in water is 1482 m/s. In general, the speed of sound in a medium = (bulk modulus of the medium/ its density)^0.5 where the bulk modulus indicates how compressible the medium is; the greater the bulk modulus, the more incompressible the medium is. So, although water has a density much greater than that of air, water is also much more incompressible than air. When you solve for the speed of sound for both water and air using the above formula, you will find that it is greater in water.
Which material has more sound speed fresh water or seawater explain?
Fresh water has more sound speed. Spongy water is what slows down speed of water.
Speed of sound in fresh water?
the speed of sound of water at 25 degrees centigrade is 1497 m/s.
What is speed of sound in water?
In fresh water, sound travels at about 1497 m/s at 25 °C.
How quick does sound travel on water?
Sound travels at the speed of 1,481.99 meters per second in fresh water.
How much faster does sound travel through sea water than through fresh water?
Speed of sound in sea water = 1531 m/s Speed of sound in fresh water= 1498m/s this is due to the salinity of the substance Speed of sound increases with temperature and salinity of the medium! hope you got it Pls mail Mubashir97xp@gmail.com
What is the wavelength of sound waves with frequency 510Hz while traveling in fresh water?
The speed of sound in fresh water is approx 1,500 metres per second. So wavelength = speed/frequency = 2.94 metres.
Does sound travel faster in sea water due to the salt?
Sound travels faster in sea water compared to fresh water because of the higher density and associated increase in speed of sound transmission in salt water. Salt also helps in conducting sound waves more effectively than in fresh water.
What are three factors that affect the speed of sound in water?
depth, current, temperature, consistency (salt or fresh)
Does sound travels faster in fresh water air steelor the same speed in all of the above?
sound travel faster in air then in any other
Is the speed of sound in a solid the same as the speed of sound in water?
No, the speed of sound is faster in solids.
How deep is the sound of speed in ocean water?
The sound of speed in ocean water or the speed of sound in water is about 1,480 meters per second. This speed can vary slightly depending on factors like water temperature, salinity, and pressure, but in general, sound travels faster in water than in air.
Is the speed of sound in water never changing?
The speed of sound depends on the temperature and the saltiness of water.
