It is found that an increase in pressure of $100 \, kPa$ causes a certain volume of water to decrease by $5 \times 10^{-3}$ percent of its original volume. Then the speed of sound in the water is about .... $m/s$ (density of water $10^3 \, kg/m^3$)

  • A
    $330$
  • B
    $1414$
  • C
    $1732$
  • D
