The speed of sound in oxygen $(O_2)$ at a certain temperature is $460 \,ms^{-1}$. The speed of sound in helium $(He)$ at the same temperature will be (assume both gases to be ideal): (in $\,ms^{-1}$)

$A$ granite rod of $60 \ cm$ length is clamped at its middle point and is set into longitudinal vibrations. The density of granite is $2.7 \times 10^3 \ kg/m^3$ and its Young's modulus is $9.27 \times 10^{10} \ Pa$. What will be the fundamental frequency of the longitudinal vibrations in $kHz$?

If the frequency of a sound wave is $n$ and its velocity is $v$,what will be the new velocity if the frequency is changed to $4n$?

Regarding the speed of sound in a gas, match the following:
$A$. Temperature of gas is made $4$ times and pressure $2$ times$P$. Speed becomes $2\sqrt{2}$ times
$B$. Only pressure is made $4$ times without change in temperature$Q$. Speed becomes $2$ times
$C$. Only temperature is changed to $4$ times$R$. Speed remains unchanged
$D$. Molecular mass of the gas is made $4$ times$S$. Speed becomes half
