The Speed of Sound in a Fluid Can Be Calculated v=Bρv = \sqrt { \frac { B } { \rho } }

Question 16

Essay

The speed of sound in a fluid can be calculated using the following equation: v=Bρv = \sqrt { \frac { B } { \rho } }
where
v= speed of sound in m/sB= bulk modulus ρ= fluid density in kg/m3\begin{array} { l } v = \text { speed of sound in } \mathrm { m } / \mathrm { s } \\B = \text { bulk modulus } \\\rho = \text { fluid density in } \mathrm { kg } / \mathrm { m } ^ { 3 }\end{array}
What is the appropriate unit for BB if the preceding equation is to be homogeneous in units?
