    factors like altitude and air density. The speeds in ideal gases and air have their own formulas: Thus‚ For a gas the K is given by the formula above‚ and the C is the coefficient of stiffness in solids. Thus the second formula is given. (Gamma) is the adiabatic index‚ then is the pressure‚ and the regular P is the density. In general‚ the speed of sound is given in the formula: K is a coefficient of stiffness‚ the bulk modulus‚ and P is the density. Then there is a more complex

    and accurately than measurements of volume. Therefore‚ the mass of the liquid contained or dispensed by the glassware will be measured and the corresponding volume calculated using the density of the liquid. However‚ a relatively small change in temperature causes a change in the liquid’s volume and thus its density. 1.2 To Contain vs To Deliver Volumetric glassware is calibrated either to contain (TC) or to deliver (TD) the stated volume. Beakers and graduated cylinders are generally calibrated

    Severe Notes 4/25/13 When ML AND UL flow reach an updraft and that midlevel and upper level flow tends to be subsaturated‚ so there are 3 options with this upward rotating flow can go left right or down. Can’t go up because air tends to be denser then the updraft air. So if that air goes down it gains downward momentum. Bc that air gains downward momentum which will evap cool it will continue to gain neg buoyancy. Once at the surface you have your RFD. Large precip surrounding the updraft which
