OH GOD..... YOU DO NOT KNOW

Question:

The velocity of sound in moist air is more than in dry air because the moist air has 

Options:
A)

  

Less pressure than dry air

B)

  

Less density than dry air

C)

  

More pressure than dry air

D)

  

More density than dry air

Solution:

Ans: (b)  The velocity of sound in moist air is more than in dry air because moist air has less density than dry air as water vapour is lighter than dry air. The velocity of sound is inversely proportional to the density of the medium.
