The speed of sound in dry air, v, is given by the equation
v = 331 + 0.6T , where T is the
temperature in Celsius and v is the
speed of sound in meters per second.
Tashi hits a drainpipe with a hammer,
260 meters away Minh hears the
sound and hits his own drainpipe.
There is a one second delay between
him hearing the sound and hitting his
own pipe. Tashi accurately measures
the time between her hitting the pipe
and hearing Mihn's pipe at 2.48
seconds. What is the temperature of
the air?
