The correct Answer is:
To calculate the increase in the velocity of sound for a rise of 1°C, we can use the formula that relates the velocity of sound in air to temperature: \[ v = v_0 + (0.61 \, \text{m/s/°C}) \times \Delta T \] Where: - \( v \) is the velocity of sound at the new temperature. - \( v_0 \) is the velocity of sound at 0°C (which is given as 332 m/s). - \( \Delta T \) is the change in temperature (which is 1°C in this case). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the given values:** - Velocity of sound at 0°C, \( v_0 = 332 \, \text{m/s} \) - Change in temperature, \( \Delta T = 1 \, \text{°C} \) 2. **Use the formula to calculate the increase in velocity:** \[ \text{Increase in velocity} = 0.61 \, \text{m/s/°C} \times 1 \, \text{°C} \] 3. **Calculate the increase:** \[ \text{Increase in velocity} = 0.61 \, \text{m/s} \] 4. **Calculate the new velocity of sound at 1°C:** \[ v = v_0 + \text{Increase in velocity} \] \[ v = 332 \, \text{m/s} + 0.61 \, \text{m/s} = 332.61 \, \text{m/s} \] 5. **Final Result:** The increase in the velocity of sound for a rise of 1°C is \( 0.61 \, \text{m/s} \). ### Summary: - The increase in velocity of sound for a 1°C rise in temperature is \( 0.61 \, \text{m/s} \).
