The speed of sound in air is about 330 m/s. Express this speed
in km/h. How long will the sound take to travel 99 km ?
Answers
Answer:
5Minutes or 300 Seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
300*60*60 / 1000 = 1118 km/h
99KMs:
99/1118 = 1/12 hours
1/12*60 = 5 minutes
or 5*60 = 300 seconds
Hey there, here's your answer step by step:-
As we know,
1m = 10⁻³ km and
1s = 1 / 3600 hr
so 1m/1s = 10⁻³ ÷ 1 / 3600
= 3600 / 10³
= 18 / 5 km/hr
A/Q v = 330m/s
So, in km/hr v = 330× 18 / 5
= 66 × 18
= 1188 km/hr
Also, it is given that distance, s = 99km
As we know that
velocity = distance / time
i.e. v = s / t
⇒ t = s / v
= 99 / 1188
= 1 / 12 hr
= (1 / 12) × 3600
= 300 seconds
Hope this helps you dear
