From the calculations, the speed of sound in this case is 16.9 m/s.
<h3>What is an echo?</h3>
The term echo has to do with the reflection of sound waves. Sound is a mechanical wave.
we know that the speed of sound is obtained from;
V = 2x/t
x = distance covered
t = time taken
V = 2(500)/59
v = 16.9 m/s
The error in the experiment could come from;
- Lack of precise time measurement
- Error can also arise from the environment of the experiment

Answer: 10kg
Explanation:
force applied by Ahmad = 100 N
box's acceleration = 10 m/s
mass of the box = ?
Recall that Force is the product of mass of an object by the acceleration by which it moves.
i.e Force = mass x acceleration
100N = mass x 10m/s
Mass = 100N / 10m/s
Mass = 10kg
Thus, the mass of the box is 10kg
