Helium (density 0.18 kg/m3 at 0°C and 1 atm pressure)
remains a gas until the extraordinarily low temperature of 4.2 K. What is the speed of sound in helium at 5 K?
What is the speed of sound in air (a) on a cold winter day in Minnesota when the temperature is –25°F, and (b) on a hot summer day in Death Valley when the temperature is 125°F?
Wavelengths of light from a distant galaxy are found to be
0.50% longer than the corresponding wavelengths measured in a terrestrial laboratory. Is the galaxy approaching or receding from the earth? At what speed?
A hammer taps on the end of a 4.00-m-long metal bar at room temperature. A microphone at the other end of the bar picks up two pulses of sound, one that travels through the metal and one that travels through the air. The pulses are separated in time by 9.00 ms . What is the speed of sound in this metal?
