Question

Write Newton's formula for the speed of sound in a gas why and what
correction was applied by Laplace in this formula?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Newton's formula

v=√e/β

here e=cofficient of elasticity of medium

B=Density of medium

Here, v=280m/s

but actual value =332m/s

so, there was a difference of 52m/s

Laplase made a change for change from adiabatic to isothermal.
