The pulse of sound hits a stationary object and is reflected back to the bat. The pulse is received by the bat 0.12s after it was emitted. Calculate the distance travelled by the pulse of sound during this time.

Respuesta :

Answer:

41.52 m

Explanation:

Using,

v = d/t....................... Equation 1

v = speed of pulse of sound, d = distance travelled by the pulse of sound, t = total time taken.

From equation 1, make d the subject of the equation

d = vt............................ Equation 2

Given: t = 0.12 s.

Constant: v = 346 m/s

Susbtitute these values into equation 2

d = 346(0.12)

d = 41.52 m
