Question

The thunder accompanying a lightning is heard 3 secs later than the flash
when the temperature of the air is 27°C. How far away is the storm?
[Velocity of sound in air = 332m/s) ans :1044m​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Speed of light is so high the lightning is practically seen at the same instant when it occurs.Lightning and thunder are produced at the same instant. Since sound took 5 seconds to travel it must have traveled

Distance= velocity X time =345x5 = 1725 meter or 1.725 KM

Sound of thunder is heard 5 seconds after the flash of lightning is seen calculate the distance of nearest point of lightning if the speed of sound in air is 346 meter second?

The sound of thunder is heard 5 seconds after the flash of lightning is seen. What is the distance of the nearest point of lightning if the speed of sound in the air is 346 meter per second?

A man heard the sound of thunder 15 seconds after he saw the flash of lightning. How far away from him did the lightning strike?

It took 2 seconds after lightning for the sound of the thunder to reach. How far did the lightning struck?

What if sound travels at a speed of 330 m/s and you hear a thunder 3 seconds after you see a lightning, what is the distance of the lightning?

If u have to find echo the s=2×d/t

Speed of sound is 345 m/s

Time after the clap of thunder is heard 5 sec

Find distance according to question

Speed = distance/ time

So,

345 = d/5sec

D = 345 × 5

D = 1725

1km 725 m away is thunder storm
