Answers
Answer:
1650m/1.65km
Explanation:
DISTANCE = SPEED X TIME
= 330m/s X 5s
= 1650m
= 1.6PLE5 km

Given,
Speed of the sound of the lightening = 330 m/s
Time taken by the lightening sound waves to reach Sonali = 5 seconds
To find,
Distance of Sonali from the place where lightning occurs.
Solution,
We can simply solve this numerical problem by using the following process:
Mathematically,
Speed (s) = distance traveled (d)/time of journey(t)
=> Distance traveled (d) = speed (s) x time of journey(t)
Now, according to the question;
Distance of Sonali from the place where lightning occurs
= speed of the sound of the lightening (s) x time taken by the lightening sound waves to reach Sonali(t)
= 330 m/s × 5 s
= 1650 meters
= 1.65 Km
Hence, the distance of Sonali from the place where lightning occurs is equal to 1.65 Km.
