The speed of sound in dry air, v, can be modeled by the formula , where T is the temperature in degrees Celsius and v is measured in meters per second. Which of the following correctly expresses T in terms of v ?
Explanation
Choice D is correct. To express T in terms of v, subtract 331.3 from both sides of the equation, which gives v – 331.3 = 0.606T. Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.606 gives .
Choices A, B, and C are incorrect and are the result of incorrect steps while solving for T.
