Question

g You heard the sound of a distant explosion (3.50 A/10) seconds after you saw it happen. If the temperature of the air is (15.0 B) oC, how far were you from the site of the explosion

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is "1557 meters".

Explanation:

speed of sound in ($\frac{m}{s}$) $= 331.5 + 0.60 \ T^{\circ}\ C$

$\to V = 331.5 + 0.6 \times 24 = 346 \frac{m}{s}\\\\\to t = 4.5 \ seconds \\\\\to S = vt = 346 \times 4.5 = 1557 \ meters$
