Scientists in a laboratory produce a sound wave in a simulated environment (air) with a velocity of 480 m/s. What is the temperature (in Kelvin) of the environment?

Explanation / Answer

we know that

Formula:

c = 20.0457(T)
where

c = speed of sound in m s

T = Temperature air T in K

Given: speed of sound c = 480 m s

The temperature of the environment:

T = c² / 20.0457² = 480² / 20.0457² = 573.37 K (Kelvin)
