Answer:

To calculate anything - speed, acceleration, all that - we need <em>data</em>. The more data we have, and the more accurate that data is, the more accurate our calculations will be. To collect that data, we need to <em>measure </em>it somehow. To measure anything, we need tools and a method. Speed is a measure of distance over time, so we'll need tools for measuring <em>time </em>and <em>distance</em>, and a method for measuring each.

Conveniently, the lamp posts in this problem are equally spaced, and we can treat that spacing as our measuring stick. To measure speed, we'll need to bring time in somehow too, and that's where the stopwatch comes in. A good method might go like this:

  1. Press start on the stopwatch right as you pass a lamp post
  2. Each time you pass another lamp post, press the lap button on the stopwatch
  3. Press stop after however many lamp posts you'd like, making sure to hit stop right as you pass the last lamp post
  4. Record your data
  5. Calculate the time intervals for passing each lamp post using the lap data
  6. Calculate the average of all those invervals and divide by 40 m - this will give you an approximate average speed

Of course, you'll never find an *exact* amount, but the more data points you have, the better your approximation will become.

Answer:

t=4.86s

Explanation:

To find the wavelength you use the following formula:

v=\lambda f

v: speed of sound = 343m/s

f: frequency = 400Hz

λ: wavelength of the sound

By doing λ the subject of the formula and replacing the values of f and v you obtain:

\lambda=\frac{v}{f}=\frac{343m/s}{400Hz}=0.85m

Now, to calculate the time that sound takes to reach the last row you use:

t=\frac{d}{v}

t: time

d: distance to the last row = 1947m

t=\frac{1947m}{400Hz}=4.86s

hence, the time is 4.86s
