The time lapse between when the bat emits the sound and when it hears the echo is 0.05 s.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Velocity of sound (v) = 343 m/s

Distance (x) = 8.42 m

Time (t) =?

We can obtain obtained the time as illustrated below:

v = 2x / t

343 = 2 × 8.42 / t

343 = 16.84 / t

Cross multiply

343 ×  t = 16.84

Divide both side by 343

t = 16.84/343

t = 0.05 s

Thus, the time between  when the bat emits the sound and when it hears the echo is 0.05 s.

<h3>How does a bat know how far away something is?</h3>

A bat emits a sound wave and carefully listens to the echoes that return to it. The returning information is processed by the bat's brain in the same way that we processed our shouting sound with a stopwatch and calculator. The bat's brain determines the distance of an object by measuring how long it takes for a noise to return.

The number of kilowatts used by an individual to operate his appliances is determined as 12.1 kWh.

<h3>Average daily power consumption</h3>

The average daily power consumption is the amount of electric energy consumed by an individual on a daily rate.

The average daily power consumption of individuals in USA is 12,100 W-hr.

<h3>Converting watts to kilowatts</h3>

E = 12,100 Whr/1000

E = 12.1 kWh

Thus, the number of kilowatts used by an individual to operate his appliances is determined as 12.1 kWh.
