Answer 2

☀️ Given that: A boy fires a gun and another boy at a distance of 1860 m hears the sound of the firing of the gun 6 s after its smoke is seen.

     Need to Find: Speed of the sound

Must Know:

• The speed of the sound, distance travelled and the time taken relationship is given as s = d/t

Where,

s is speed of sound

d is distance it has covered ( 1860 m )

t is time taken ( 6s )

Solution:

→ Speed of sound = 1860m/6s

→ Speed of sound = 310 m/s

⠀━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━  

• Henceforth, the speed of sound here is 310m/s
