Velocity of Sound Wave given Sound Intensity Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Velocity of Sound Wave = Pressure RMS^2/(Sound Intensity Level*Density of Air)
C = P_rms^2/(I*ρ)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Velocity of Sound Wave - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The Velocity of Sound Wave refers to the speed of sound with the distance traveled per unit of time by a sound wave.
Pressure RMS - (Measured in Pascal) - The Pressure RMS refers to the root mean square value is the local pressure deviation from the ambient atmospheric pressure, caused by a sound wave.
Sound Intensity Level - (Measured in Watt per Square Meter) - The Sound Intensity Level refers to the logarithmic measure of the sound power per unit area, expressed in decibels (dB).
Density of Air - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - The Density of Air refers to the mass per unit volume of Earth's atmosphere, typically around 1.225 kg/m³ at sea level and 15°C, affecting sound propagation and weather.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Pressure RMS: 0.00021 Pascal --> 0.00021 Pascal No Conversion Required
Sound Intensity Level: 1E-10 Watt per Square Meter --> 1E-10 Watt per Square Meter No Conversion Required
Density of Air: 1.293 Kilogram per Cubic Meter --> 1.293 Kilogram per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

C = P_rms^2/(I*ρ) --> 0.00021^2/(1E-10*1.293)

Evaluating ... ...

C = 341.067285382831

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

341.067285382831 Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

341.067285382831 ≈ 341.0673 Meter per Second <-- Velocity of Sound Wave

What is Sound Intensity?

Sound intensity, also known as acoustic intensity, is defined as the power carried by sound waves per unit area in a direction perpendicular to that area.

How to Calculate Velocity of Sound Wave given Sound Intensity?

Velocity of Sound Wave given Sound Intensity calculator uses Velocity of Sound Wave = Pressure RMS^2/(Sound Intensity Level*Density of Air) to calculate the Velocity of Sound Wave, The Velocity of Sound Wave given Sound Intensity formula is defined as speed, although, properly, velocity implies both speed and direction. The velocity of a wave is equal to the product of its wavelength and frequency (number of vibrations per second) and is independent of its intensity. Velocity of Sound Wave is denoted by C symbol.

How to calculate Velocity of Sound Wave given Sound Intensity using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Velocity of Sound Wave given Sound Intensity, enter Pressure RMS (P_rms), Sound Intensity Level (I) & Density of Air (ρ) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Velocity of Sound Wave given Sound Intensity calculation can be explained with given input values -> 30935.81 = 0.00021^2/(1E-10*1.293).

FAQ

What is Velocity of Sound Wave given Sound Intensity?

The Velocity of Sound Wave given Sound Intensity formula is defined as speed, although, properly, velocity implies both speed and direction. The velocity of a wave is equal to the product of its wavelength and frequency (number of vibrations per second) and is independent of its intensity and is represented as C = P_rms^2/(I*ρ) or Velocity of Sound Wave = Pressure RMS^2/(Sound Intensity Level*Density of Air). The Pressure RMS refers to the root mean square value is the local pressure deviation from the ambient atmospheric pressure, caused by a sound wave, The Sound Intensity Level refers to the logarithmic measure of the sound power per unit area, expressed in decibels (dB) & The Density of Air refers to the mass per unit volume of Earth's atmosphere, typically around 1.225 kg/m³ at sea level and 15°C, affecting sound propagation and weather.

How to calculate Velocity of Sound Wave given Sound Intensity?
