2.5Formulas for the Speed of Sound
The speed of the sound can be formulated using pressure, density, temperature, or bulk modulus. The following sections show three formulas for calculating the speed of sound.
2.5.1Formula Using Pressure
In the previous section, the speed of the sound c was formulated using pressure and density as:
r
c ¼ γPo
ρo
where γ is the ratio of specific heats and the approximate value of γ for air is:
γ ¼ 1.4 (for air at any temperature)
Example 2.1 Air at 1 atm, 15 C has a density:
hKgi
ρo ¼ 1:225 m3
Calculate the speed of sound in air at 1 atm, 15 C based on the pressure, density, and ratio of specific heats. (Hint: Air has the ratio of specific heats γ ¼ 1.4.)
Example 2.1 Solution The pressure at 1 atm is:
Po ¼ 1:01 ∙ 105 ½Pa& ð1 atmÞ
The speed of sound c at 15 C for air can be calculated based on the pressure Po, density ρo, and ratio of specific heats γ as:

2.5 Formulas for the Speed of Sound |
43 |
Note that in the formula for the speed of sound above, the speed c is a function of pressure Po and density ρo. However, changing the pressure does not change the speed of sound because the effect from density ρo cancels out the effect from pressure Po.
For example, at higher altitudes, the decrease of density is linearly proportional to the decrease of air pressure, and the speed of sound here will be the same as at sea level.
As a result, the temperature is the most significant factor in the speed of the sound and will be shown in the next section.
2.5.2Formula Using Bulk Modulus
The speed of sound is related to the stiffness of the media. The coefficient of stiffness is also called bulk modulus and is defined as the ratio of pressure increase to volume decrease as:

Substituting the equation above in the definition of bulk modulus yields:
B ¼ γPo
The formula for the speed of sound (based on bulk modulus) can be obtained by substituting the bulk modulus into the formula for the speed of sound (based on pressure) as:

where B is the bulk modulus and ρo is the average density of the media.
The formula above for the speed of sound using bulk modulus is valid for both gases and liquids.
Example 2.2 Air at 1 atm, 15 C has a bulk modulus B and density ρo as:
B ¼ 1:414 105 ½Pa&
hKgi
ρo ¼ 1:2 m3
Calculate the speed of sound in air at 1 atm, 15 C based on the given bulk modulus B and density ρo.
