Question 396704: The velocity of sound in air is given by the equation v=20√(273+t), where v is the velocity in meters per second and t is the temperature in degrees celsius. Find the temperature when the velocity is 329 meters per second by graphing the equation. Round the answer to the nearest degree. Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The velocity of sound in air is given by the equation v=20√(273+t), where v is the velocity in meters per second and t is the temperature in degrees celsius. Find the temperature when the velocity is 329 meters per second by graphing the equation. Round the answer to the nearest degree.
--------
v=20√(273+t)
329 = 20*sqrt(273+t)
16.45 = sqrt(273+t)
273+t = 16.45^2
t- 16.45^2-273
t = -2.4 degrees celsius
