As we had learnt in

Speed of sound wave -

v= \sqrt{\frac{B}{\rho }}

- wherein

B is bulk modulus that represent elastic property of medium

\rho = density of medium that represent inertial property of medium.

 

 

The speed of sound in gas of density \rho at a pressure P is v = \sqrt{\frac{\gamma P}{\rho}}

 

 

velocity of sound in air -

Newtons formula = \sqrt{\frac{P}{\rho }}
