Answer:

v = 340 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed of light and the temperature follows the following relation as :

$v=331+0.6\ T$ .............(1)

It is given that the atmospheric temperature is 15 Celsius. Put the value of T in above equation as :

v=331+0.6* 15

v = 340 m/s

So, the speed of sound travelling from the flute is 340 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
