Question

On a day when the speed of sound in air is 94.0 km/hr you yell across a canyon. you hear your voice echo back from the opposite canyon wall 1.03 min after you first yell. what is your distance in meters from the other side of the canyon?

Whoever does this thank you so much, you're doing God's work!

Answer 1

1,613.7 m

Explanation:

speed of sound in air = 94 km/hr.

with a time of 1.03 min.

find distance traveled in meters

solution:

distance = velocity x time

= 94 km x 1 hr. x 1.03 min x 1 000 m

hr. 60 min. 1 km

= 1,613.7 m

Answer 2

94.0 km/hr * 1.03 min = 96.82 km/m
