Formula:
The speed of sound in air can be approximated using the following formula:
* v = 331.4 + 0.6T
where:
* v is the speed of sound in meters per second (m/s)
* T is the temperature in degrees Celsius (°C)
Calculation:
1. Convert temperature to Celsius: 30 degrees Celsius is already in Celsius.
2. Plug the temperature into the formula: v = 331.4 + 0.6 * 30
3. Calculate: v = 331.4 + 18 = 349.4 m/s
Therefore, the velocity of sound at 30 degrees Celsius is approximately 349.4 m/s.
