Question

The speed of sound at 0°C is 331.5 m/s. Calculate the speed of sound in the room at 10.0°C.

Answer 1

The answer is 337 m/s.

Answer 2

The speed of sound in the room at 10⁰C is 337.57 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The variation of temperature and speed of sound is given by the following equation :

`v=331.5+0.607\ T_c`............(1)

Where

`T_c` in temperature in Celsius temperature

The speed of sound at 0°C is 331.5 m/s. The speed in the room at 10⁰C can be calculated using equation (1)

`v=331.5+0.607* 10`

v = 337.57 m/s

Hence, the speed of sound in the room at 10⁰C is 337.57 m/s
