Re: [Phys-l] speed of sound



I've been searching for a speed of sound activity for my freshmen
physical science students(HS)...your activity sounds interesting. What
are the lab procedures, if you don't mind me asking?

Subject: [Phys-l] speed of sound

I know how the speed of sound varies with temperature in air, and am
wanting the speed of sound in carbon dioxide. I've searched the web
with
no luck. Only found the speed to be 258 m/s at 0 °C. Wanted to know
other
values for a speed of sound lab I'm trying soon (with water, tuning
fork,
Alka-Seltzer, etc.).

Can someone guide me to a web site or a formula for the speed of sound
in
CO2 from 0 °C to 100 °C? I don't have a CRC Handbook, but am
wondering if
this book might have the information I need.
