The speed of sound varies according to the material through which it travels. Sound travels at 5.4 × 103 cm/s through rubber and at 1.97 × 104 ft/s through granite. Calculate each of these speeds in m/s.
Speed in rubber:
m/s Speed in granite: × 10 -- m/s

Respuesta :

The speed of sound is the speed at which sound travels from one point to another.

What is the speed of sound?

The speed of sound is the speed at which sound travels from one point to another. We know that the speed of sound varies from place to pace owing to the density ad the kind of particles that are found in the medium.

Thus, we are going to convert the following now to units of meter per second.

1) For 5.4 × 103 cm/s we have  5.4 × 10^3 cm/s /100 = 54 m/s

2) For 1.97 × 104 ft/s  we have r 1.97 × 10^4 ft/s / 0.3048 = 6.46 m/s
