Answer:
Speed of sound = 2958.88m/s
Explanation:
The speed of sound is given by:
V = Sqrt(s/m)× d
Where a = stiffness of the metal
m = atomic mass of the metal
d,= distance
Given:
s= 48N/m
d= 2.3×10^-10m
m = 2.9×10^-25kg
V = Sqrt(48/(2.9×10^-25) × 2.3× 10^-10
V = Sqrt(1.655×10^26)×2.3×10^-10
V = 1.286×10^13 × 2.3×10^-10
V = 2958.88m/s
