PHXI15:WAVES

354656 \(v_{1}\) and \(v_{2}\) are the velocities of sound at the same temperature in two monoatomic gases of densities \(\rho_{1}\) and \(\rho_{2}\) respectively. If \(\rho_{1} / \rho_{2}=\dfrac{1}{4}\) then the ratio of velocities \(v_{1}\) and \(v_{2}\) will be

1 \(4: 1\)
2 \(1: 2\)
3 \(1: 4\)
4 \(2: 1\)

354658 Assertion :
The basic of Laplace correction was that exchange of heat between the region of compression and rarefaction in air is not possible if it is isothermal.
Reason :
Air is a bad conductor of heat and velocity of sound in air is appreciably large.

1 Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of the Assertion.
2 Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation of the Assertion.
3 Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
4 Assertion is incorrect but reason is correct.

354659 Speed of sound at constant temperature depends on

1 Density of gas
2 Pressure
3 Both (1) and (2)
4 None of these
PHXI15:WAVES

354660 Assertion :
Sound would travel faster on a hot summer day than on a cold winter day.
Reason :
Velocity of sound is directly proportional to the square of its absolute temperature.
