In an experiment, the speed of sound waves was compared to the density of the medium they passed through. Using the information in the data table below, describe the relationship between the density of the material and the speed of the sound waves. Explain why the relationship between the two exists, and hypothesize the relationship that light waves would have with the density of the materials medium density(g/ml)speed(m/s)

The air in an automobile tire with a volume of 2.60 ft3 is at 70°f and 21 psig. determine the amount of air that must be added to raise the pressure to the recommended value of 30 psig. assume the atmospheric pressure to be 14.6 psia and the temperature and the volume to remain constant. the gas constant of air is ru = 53.34ft⋅lbflbm⋅r(1 psia144 lbf/ft2) = 0.3704 psia⋅ft3lbm⋅r the amount of air that must be added to raise the pressure is lbm
