Speed of Sound Wave Calculator

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Velocity of sound wave - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The Velocity of sound wave is the speed of sound with the distance traveled per unit of time by a sound wave.
Temperature - (Measured in Kelvin) - Temperature is the degree or intensity of heat present in a substance or object.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Temperature: 85 Kelvin --> 85 Kelvin No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

C = 20.05*sqrt(T) --> 20.05*sqrt(85)

Evaluating ... ...

C = 184.851866368722

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

184.851866368722 Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

184.851866368722 ≈ 184.8519 Meter per Second <-- Velocity of sound wave

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

< 3 Velocity of Sound Calculators

Velocity of Sound Wave given Sound Intensity

Go Velocity of sound wave = Pressure RMS^2/(Sound Intensity*Density of Air)

Velocity for Wavelength of Wave

Go Velocity of sound wave = (Wavelength of a Wave*Frequency)

Speed of Sound Wave

Go Velocity of sound wave = 20.05*sqrt(Temperature)

Speed of Sound Wave Formula

Velocity of sound wave = 20.05*sqrt(Temperature)
C = 20.05*sqrt(T)

What is temperature?

Temperature is a physical quantity that expresses hot and cold. It is the manifestation of thermal energy, present in all matter, which is the source of the occurrence of heat, a flow of energy, when a body is in contact with another that is colder or hotter. Temperature is measured with a thermometer.

How to Calculate Speed of Sound Wave?

Speed of Sound Wave calculator uses Velocity of sound wave = 20.05*sqrt(Temperature) to calculate the Velocity of sound wave, The Speed of Sound Wave refers to speed, although, properly, velocity implies both speed and direction. The velocity of a wave is equal to the product of its wavelength and frequency (number of vibrations per second) and is independent of its intensity. Velocity of sound wave is denoted by C symbol.

How to calculate Speed of Sound Wave using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Speed of Sound Wave, enter Temperature (T) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Speed of Sound Wave calculation can be explained with given input values -> 184.8519 = 20.05*sqrt(85).

FAQ

What is Speed of Sound Wave?

The Speed of Sound Wave refers to speed, although, properly, velocity implies both speed and direction. The velocity of a wave is equal to the product of its wavelength and frequency (number of vibrations per second) and is independent of its intensity and is represented as C = 20.05*sqrt(T) or Velocity of sound wave = 20.05*sqrt(Temperature). Temperature is the degree or intensity of heat present in a substance or object.

How to calculate Speed of Sound Wave?

The Speed of Sound Wave refers to speed, although, properly, velocity implies both speed and direction. The velocity of a wave is equal to the product of its wavelength and frequency (number of vibrations per second) and is independent of its intensity is calculated using Velocity of sound wave = 20.05*sqrt(Temperature). To calculate Speed of Sound Wave, you need Temperature (T). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Temperature and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.

How many ways are there to calculate Velocity of sound wave?

In this formula, Velocity of sound wave uses Temperature. We can use 2 other way(s) to calculate the same, which is/are as follows -

Velocity of sound wave = (Wavelength of a Wave*Frequency)
Velocity of sound wave = Pressure RMS^2/(Sound Intensity*Density of Air)
