On a winter day sound travels 336 meters in one second. Find the atmosphere temperature. Speed of sound at 0^@C=332ms^-1`.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the atmospheric temperature based on the speed of sound, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between speed of sound and temperature The speed of sound in a gas is proportional to the square root of the absolute temperature of the gas. This can be expressed mathematically as: \[ C \propto \sqrt{T} \] where \( C \) is the speed of sound and \( T \) is the absolute temperature in Kelvin. ### Step 2: Write the equation for speed of sound ...
