Problema Solution

The speed of sound through sea water is linearly related to the temperature of the water.If sound travels at 1,403m/sec at 0 degrees C and at 1,481 m/sec at 20 degrees C. Contruct a linear model relating the speed of sound(s)snd air temperture(t).Interpret the slope of this model.

Answer provided by our tutors

speed at 0 degree= 1403 

speed at ny temprature t= v(t)

speed at 20 degre= 1481 

rise in speed =1481-1403=78

sllope =78/20

this is rise per degree c

 

v(t)=1403+ 78/20 * t

t is temp
