flying dog Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 Of, the village idiot watched it - finally I have a pretty high regard for James, but there was a problem with how he was describing the speed of sound. Listen to attached. In cold air the speed is lower but the air is too thin...... or something like that. He does go on to maybe explain it. I am still watching it and it is on pause. Could some clever clog can help me. Update: the file is too big to upload and despite my efforts I can't edit it on the android tablet. That is 4 apps and 1 code later. When I get a chance I will turn on the pic and edit/ upload it.
ayavner Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 would expect it would have something to do with the density of the medium through which it (sound) travels. Cold air is more dense.
flying dog Posted January 25, 2015 Author Posted January 25, 2015 As much as I despise win doze, these annoying android things as nearly as bad. They save files to some of the most obscure and mind baffling places. Now I have lost the sample!
facthunter Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 Density will have more to do with your altitude. eg higher local pressure being the major factor. You are more MACH limited at altitude by MCrit. as speed of sound is lower. Nev
