Prompt

In 3-4 sentences, explain the speed of sound versus temperature. State any key formula.
87 chars

Generation

The speed of sound in air increases with temperature because warmer air has faster-moving molecules that transmit vibrations more quickly. This relationship is approximately linear for typical atmospheric temperatures. The key formula is: **v = 331.3 + 0.606T** where v is the speed of sound in m/s and T is the temperature in °C. At 0°C, sound travels at about 331 m/s, and increases by roughly 0.6 m/s for each degree Celsius rise in temperature.
