Given Information:  

Elapsed time = t = 6 seconds

Required Information:

Distance = d = ?

Answer:

Distance = d = 2.058 km

Explanation:

We know that the speed of sound in the air is given by

v = 343 m/s

The relation between distance, speed and time is given by

distance = speed*time

substituting the given values yields,

distance = 343*6

distance = 2058 m

There are 1000 meters in 1 km so

d = 2058/1000

d = 2.058 km

Therefore, the storm is about 2.058 km away when elapse time between the lightning and the thunderclap is 6 seconds.

agasfer [191]

Answer:

It would be hard to make a model that shows the real sizes and distances between planets ( B )

Explanation:

Yuri building a model of the solar system will face the difficult of replicating the correct distances between the planets and the real sizes of the planets, because in model building the key factors of the Model must be represented properly.

The size of the planets and the distance between the planets are key factors when trying to model the solar system. but the distance between the planets depends on the position of the planets on their orbits which means the distances are not constant ( fixed ) hence that  would be the limitation of his model.
