At 29'C, the speed of sound is about 3.49x10^2 meters per second. Find the distance traveled by sound in one hour.
To find the distance traveled by sound in one hour, we need to calculate the speed of sound in meters per hour.
First, we know that there are 60 minutes in an hour. So, we need to convert the speed of sound from meters per second to meters per minute.
Given the speed of sound at 29°C is 3.49 x 10^2 meters per second, we can use the conversion factor of 60 seconds per minute:
speed in meters per minute = speed in meters per second x 60
speed in meters per minute = 3.49 x 10^2 meters per second x 60
Next, we need to convert the speed of sound from meters per minute to meters per hour by multiplying by another 60 since there are 60 minutes in an hour:
speed in meters per hour = speed in meters per minute x 60
speed in meters per hour = (3.49 x 10^2 meters per second x 60) x 60
With this calculation, we find the speed of sound in meters per hour.
Next, we can multiply the speed of sound by the time, which is one hour (60 minutes) to obtain the distance traveled by sound in one hour:
distance traveled in one hour = speed in meters per hour x time in hours
distance traveled in one hour = (3.49 x 10^2 meters per second x 60) x 60
By calculating this expression, we will find the distance traveled by sound in one hour.
