Q5 of 12 Page 137

Solve the following examples.

Helium gas is filled in two identical bottles A and B. The mass of the gas in the two bottles is 10 gm and 40 gm respectively. If the speed of sound is the same in both bottles, what conclusions will you draw?

Given:

Mass of helium in bottle A = 10 gm


Mass of helium in bottle B = 40 gm


Velocity of helium in bottle A = Velocity of helium in bottle B


= > vA = vB = v


We know that


T = Temperature


So




Temperature in bottle A is less than temperature in bottle B.
