The increase in the speed of sound for each degree rise above 0 degree is
Correct answer: A. 0.61 m/s
- A. 0.61 m/s
- B. 0.51 m/s
- C. 0.41 m/s
- D. 0.31 m/s
Explanation
According to the formula, Vt= V0+0.61*t The value 0.61 is constantly increased with each degree increase in temperature.

About Waves
Progressive waves transfer energy through oscillations, with wavelength, frequency, amplitude and wave speed related by v = fλ; sound speed depends on the medium. Superposition produces interference and stationary waves in strings and organ pipes, while simple harmonic motion describes the oscillation itself and must be distinguished from wave propagation.
