3. Suppose you are 3.3 km away from rifle range where someone is

practicing shooting. How long would it take you to hear the sound of a

shot fired by him? (Speed of sound 344m/s) please please answer as soon as possible otherwise i am dead dead by my teacher

Respuesta :

Speed and Distance

Hence, it will take 9.593 seconds to hear the sound of the shot

Explanation:

Given that person is   3.3 km away from rifle range where someone is

practicing shooting

So, distance =3.3 km = 3300 m

Speed of sound is given as 344 m/s

[tex]Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}[/tex]

Thus [tex]Time = \frac{Distance}{Speed}[/tex]

Time = [tex]\frac{3300}{344}[/tex] = 9.593 seconds

Hence, it will take 9.593 seconds to hear the sound of the shot
