Let the observer be 'd' distance away from the thunderstorm and let light take 't' time to reach the observer
Since the speed of sound and light remains constant in a particular medium, we can use
      Speed = Distance/Time

For light,
   3 x 10^8 = d/t
                t = d/(3 x 10^8)   -1 

For sound,
           339 = d/(t + 30)       -2

Putting value from 1 in 2.
               d = 10^4 m(approx)

0.45 kg soccer ball changes its velocity by 20.0 m/s due to a force applied to it in 0.10 seconds. What force was necessary for
Paladinen [302]

Assuming the accleration applied was constant, we have

v=v_0+at\implies v_0+20.0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}=v_0+a(0.10\,\mathrm s)

\implies20.0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}=a(0.10\,\mathrm s)

\implies a=200\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}

Then the force applied to the ball is given by

F=ma=(0.45\,\mathrm{kg})\left(200\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)

\implies F=90\,\dfrac{\mathrm{kg}\,\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}=90.\,\mathrm N
