A) \[{{\upsilon }_{m}}<{{\upsilon }_{d}}\]
B) \[{{\upsilon }_{m}}>{{\upsilon }_{d}}\]
C) \[{{\upsilon }_{m}}{{\upsilon }_{d}}=1\]
D) \[{{\upsilon }_{m}}={{\upsilon }_{d}}\]
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
From the relation, \[{{\upsilon }_{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{\gamma P}{\rho }}\] where, P = pressure of the gas \[\rho \] = density of the gas Since, density of moist air is less than that of dry air i.e. \[{{\rho }_{m}}<{{\rho }_{d}}\] Therefore, \[{{\upsilon }_{m}}<{{\upsilon }_{d}}\]
