Solution

The correct option is D $330 m s^{- 1}$
Answer is D.
The speed of sound changes with air temperature, humidity, and even air quality. The speed of sound is about 331.5 m/s at 0 degree-Celsius. The speed of sound increases by 0.6 meters per second (m/s) for every degree-Celsius increase in temperature.
