speed at which sounds travels in fuel Explanation: Yes, it has to be. Leaving Einstein aside, it doesn't matter what travels at the speed of sound. This speed will always be the same. However, the speed of sound depends on the density and pressure of the fluid or gas. (If memory serves correctly) Hence, the German term is verboten inaccurate. |
