You may be surprised to read that there is no one value for speed of sound in steel that covers all cases. Sound can propagate as a bulk shear or shake wave, as a compression longitudinal wave, and as an extension wave in thin rods.
This speed also varies with the alloy in question.
Here are a couple of table entries for steel which list
in column 1 the relative density;
column 2, the shear wave velocity in bulk material,
column 3 the longitudinal wave velocity,
and finally col 4, the extension wave velocity in slender rods.
Speeds are given in meters per second.
Relative density may be taken as grams per cc.Steel, mild

What is the sound velocity of CUNIFER?
Using the Auto calibrate function on an Olympus epoch XT on a cunifer step wedge the sound velocity it gives for that particular block is 4988m/s. The block is 90% copper & 10% nickel. The velocity for copper is 4750m/s so the above should not be far away from the truth.
Why is there a twist in a propeller blade?
to keep the angle under which propeller section sees the relative velocity. Because, a propeller essentially is a wing which rotates around an axis parallel to the flight velocity. wings operate best at a certain angle of attack, which is an angle at which wing 'sees' the flow. now, propellers rotate and tangential velocity increases from root to tip. airflow velocity is obviously constant. tangent of angle between relative velocity and prop section is air velocity / tangential velocity. we want angle between propeller section and relative velocity to constant, since tangent changes from root to tip , we need to change angle of propeller section itself.
Simple machines in a flat iron?
Yes, there is a lever in the flat iron. The fulcrum is where the 2 types of the flat iron come together, and your input force is when you squeeze the 2 parts together to grab your hair.
Parts of flat iron and its functions?
Parts of a flat iron include the heating elements, which are internal, and the straightening plates, which actually straighten the hair. Another part is the clamp and body, the external parts.
How hard is Jasper the gem on the moh hardness scale?
Jasper is a hardness of 7 on Mohs scale. Jasper is a type of Chalcedony, a variety of quartz (silicon dioxide) often with some iron and aluminum. Jasper gets it's colors from iron oxides.
What is sound velocity in grey cast iron?
This is the speed for sound in iron grey cast iron may be higher than this
The velocity of sound is maximum in?
1.water 2.air 3.mercury 4.iron
Sound travels faster in glass or iron?
One source on the Internet (http://www.bamr.co.za/velocity%20of%20materials.shtml) has the speed of sound in various glasses between 4260 and 6800 m/s and that source has the speed of sound in steels 5900 to 6100 and cast iron 3500 to 5600 So according to that source the speed of sound is comparable in both iron and glass with the variations giving lower speeds in some iron compounds/manufacturing states then the lowest speeds in glass and some glasses having higher speeds than steels.
The waves which can be propagate a long distance through cast iron?
Sound waves.

Write an experiment to find the velocity of sound?
Give the effect of density on velocity of sound?
as density of medium increase velocity of sound decreases.
Is Sound listen greater in solids or in air?
Sound velocity is greatest in solids, and the solid with the highest velocity of sound is metallic Beryllium.
