Sound waves actually travel much faster in water than air, but words and the direction of the noise are distorted.
Answer:
340 seconds = 5.667 minutes
Explanation:
As we know, S = v t or t = S / v (S = 51 x 10^9 m and v = 3 x 10^8 ms^-1)
So, t = 51 x 10^9 / 3 x 10^8 = 17 x 10^1 = 170 s
For a RTT estimation, the time span will be doubled of one way propagation for transmission and receive delay.
The over all round trip time will be = 170 x 2 = 340 seconds = 5.667 minutes
Answer:
A) would be the best explanation because hot air is less dense and would rise to the top of a column of air
