Why convert velocity of sound in pure water to centimeters per minute?

Converting to centimeters per minute provides a unit suitable for expressing very high speeds in contexts that require slower, more precise linear measurements.

What affects the velocity of sound in pure water?

Temperature, pressure (depth), and salinity influence the velocity at which sound travels through pure water.

Is centimeter per minute a common unit for high-speed measurements?

No, cm/min is typically used for low speeds; representing high speeds like sound velocity using this unit results in very large numbers.
