Velocity of Sound in Liquid Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Velocity of Wave = sqrt(Bulk Modulus/Density)
V_w = sqrt(K/ρ)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 3 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Velocity of Wave - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The Velocity of Wave is equal to the product of its wavelength and frequency (number of vibrations per second) and is independent of its intensity.
Bulk Modulus - (Measured in Pascal) - The Bulk Modulus is defined as the ratio of the infinitesimal pressure increase to the resulting relative decrease of the volume.
Density - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - The Density of a material shows the denseness of that material in a specific given area. This is taken as mass per unit volume of a given object.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Bulk Modulus: 2000 Pascal --> 2000 Pascal No Conversion Required
Density: 997 Kilogram per Cubic Meter --> 997 Kilogram per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

V_w = sqrt(K/ρ) --> sqrt(2000/997)

Evaluating ... ...

V_w = 1.41633966765126

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.41633966765126 Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.41633966765126 ≈ 1.41634 Meter per Second <-- Velocity of Wave

What are the properties of a liquid?

A liquid is a nearly incompressible fluid that conforms to the shape of its container but retains a (nearly) constant volume independent of pressure. As such, it is one of the four fundamental states of matter (the others being solid, gas, and plasma), and is the only state with a definite volume but no fixed shape.

How to Calculate Velocity of Sound in Liquid?
