Question

if we listen to the sound of lightening 10sec after observing it how far are we from the place where lightening occurs? (sound speed =330m/s)​

Answer 1

Answer:

3300 meter

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that speed is defined as distance travelled divided by the time.

The speed of the sound is 330 m/s

that means in 1 sec it travel 330 m

so in 10 sec it travels  330 X 10 = 3300 m

Therefore we are at a distance of 3300 m or 3.3 km from the distance where lightning occurs.
