Answer 2

Answer:

The man is 2420 feet from the wood chopper.

Explanation:

In the question sound speed is given which is 1100 feet/second and time is also given which is 11/5 second.

According to the formula we know that distance will equal to the multiplication of time and speed.

Distance = S x t ( where S is speed and ‘’t’’ is time)

Distance= 1100 x 11/5

Distance= 220 x 11 = 2420 feet.  Therefore man is 2420 feet from the axe.
