Question

Ramesh measures the time gap between lightning and thunder and found that it was 3seconds. Assuming light covers the distance instanly ,what is the distance of clouds from Ramesh

Answer 1

time gap = 3 seconds.

speed = 330 m/s

distance of clouds = 330 m/s * 3 seconds

= 990 m

Answer 2

v=d/t
we know that the velocity of the sound is 330 m/s
330=d/3
d=990m
