Answer:
865 m.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given ,
Speed of sound , v = 346 m s-¹
Time taken for hearing the echo ,
t = 5 s
Distance travelled by the sound
= v × t = 346 m s-¹ × 5 s = 1730 m
In 5 s sound has to travel twice the distance between the cliff and the person.Hence , the distance between the cliff and the person .
= 1730 m/2 = 865 m.
