The formula to calculate the Reverberation Time is:
\[ RT = 0.049 \times \left( \frac{V}{A} \right) \]
Where:
Reverberation Time (RT) is the time it takes for sound to decay by 60 decibels in a closed space. It is a critical parameter in acoustics, affecting the clarity and quality of sound in a room. The RT depends on the volume of the room and the total area of sound-absorbing materials within it.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ RT = 0.049 \times \left( \frac{5000}{250} \right) = 0.98 \text{ seconds} \]
The Reverberation Time (RT) is 0.98 seconds.
