You are testing a prototype loudspeaker for your Audio division, which may possibly be used in smoke-filled environments when nuclear reactor emergencies occur. A senior colleague has asked you to use dimensional analysis to predict how the speed of sound (u) in a gas may be influenced by the gas pressure (p), gas density (r) and acceleration due to gravity (g).
