Question

A gun is fired and Jacob hears after 1.5 seconds. If the speed of sound in air be 330 m /s, find the distance between Jacob and where is the fired

Answer 1

Answer:

Given:

Time:1.5 seconds

Speed:330m/s

Distance:?

We know that distance=speed×time

D=330×1.5

D=495m.

the distance between Jacob and where is the fired is 495m.

HOPE THIS HELPS :D

Answer 2

Answer:

Speed of sound = 330m/s

Time of hearing = 1.5 second

Time of hearing is the time which the sound return from the target to find divide it by 2

To find the time for one side

1.5/2 = 0. 75 sec

Now

S= vt

S= 330*0.75

S= 247.5 m
