Answer:

The speed of sound in air when the temperature is 20°C is 343 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Temperature T = 20°C = 20+273=293 K

The speed of sound in air is the distance traveled divided by time.

We know that,

The relation between the speed of sound in air and temperature is defined as:

v= 331\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{273}}

Where, T = temperature in Kelvin

v = speed of sound in air

We substitute the value into the formula

v = 331\sqrt{\dfrac{293}{273}}

v = 342.9 = 343\ m/s

The speed of sound in air is 331 m/s at 0° C, 343 m/s at 20°C and 346 m/s at 25°C.

Hence, the speed of sound in air when the temperature is 20°C is 343 m/s.

A bat emitts a sonar sound wave (343 m/s) that bounces off a mosquito 8.42 m away
Varvara68 [4.7K]

The time lapse between when the bat emits the sound and when it hears the echo is 0.05 s.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Velocity of sound (v) = 343 m/s

Distance (x) = 8.42 m

Time (t) =?

We can obtain obtained the time as illustrated below:

v = 2x / t

343 = 2 × 8.42 / t

343 = 16.84 / t

Cross multiply

343 ×  t = 16.84

Divide both side by 343

t = 16.84/343

t = 0.05 s

Thus, the time between  when the bat emits the sound and when it hears the echo is 0.05 s.

<h3>How does a bat know how far away something is?</h3>

A bat emits a sound wave and carefully listens to the echoes that return to it. The returning information is processed by the bat's brain in the same way that we processed our shouting sound with a stopwatch and calculator. The bat's brain determines the distance of an object by measuring how long it takes for a noise to return.
