Discuss the laplaces correction for speed of sound in a gas |
|
Answer» tion:A correction to the calculation of the speed of sound in a gas. Newton assumed that the pressure–volume changes that OCCUR when a sound WAVE TRAVELS through the gas are ISOTHERMAL. Laplace was subsequently able to obtain agreement between theory and experiment by assuming that pressure–volume changes are adiabatic. |
