We have recently derived two-fluid hydrodynamic equations for a trapped weakly-interacting Bose gas. In this paper, we use these equations to discuss first and second sound in a uniform Bose gas. These results are shown to agree with the predictions of the usual two-fluid equations of Landau when the thermodynamic functions are evaluated for a weakly-interacting gas. In a uniform gas, second sound mainly corresponds to an oscillation of the superfluid (the condensate) and is the low frequency continuation of the Goldstone-Bogoliubov symmetry-breaking mode.
