Ah, but our result was slower than the room temperature value, so perhaps it was the opposite. The speed of sound through the heated (and therefore less dense) air would be lower than the speed of sound at room temperature.
Great Demo. You are so comfortable giving the demonstration. I was wondering about why the speed of sound calculation did not produce the expected result. Could it be that the "Speed in air" number you were using was for room temperature air, but the propane cooled the air and made the speed faster? I love Fugazi, too!
