What does Cosmic velocity - first represent?

It is the minimum tangential speed an object needs to maintain a stable circular orbit at a given distance from the center of a celestial body.

Why is the Velocity of sound in sea water defined at 20°C and 10 meters depth?

Because sound speed in seawater depends on temperature, salinity, and pressure, this standard condition provides a consistent reference for near-surface marine environments.

Can this conversion be used for other temperatures or depths?

No, the provided conversion applies specifically to 20°C and 10 meters depth due to variability in sound speed with environmental factors.
