Formula:
The speed of sound in air (v) can be approximated using the following formula:
v = 331.4 + 0.6 * T
Where:
* v = speed of sound (meters per second)
* T = temperature in degrees Celsius
Calculation:
1. Convert temperature to Celsius: We're given 25 degrees Celsius, so T = 25.
2. Plug the temperature into the formula:
v = 331.4 + 0.6 * 25
3. Calculate:
v = 331.4 + 15
v = 346.4 m/s
Therefore, the speed of sound in air at 25 degrees Celsius is approximately 346.4 meters per second.
