Question

A marching band is practicing. The band director sees the drum major hit a drum. How far away is the director if he hears the drumbeat in 0.40 seconds? The speed of sound is 330 m/s. 12 m 132 m 264 m 825 m

Answer 1

$\fontsize{18}{10}{\textup{\textbf{The director is 132 m away}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of sound=330 m/s

Distance traveled in 0.4 s= 330*0.4 m

=132 m

So the director is  132 m away

Answer 2

Answer:

B. 132m

Step-by-step explanation:

V=d/t

V=330

d=?

t=0.4

330=d/0.4

now you multiply .4 to both sides by and the denominator cancels out leaving you with

330 times .4 = d

330 times .4=132

d=132
