We see a bolt of lightning and 4 s later we hear the thunderclap. If the speed of
sound in air is 0.2 mi/s, how far away is the lightning?

Respuesta :

Answer:

i guess 0.8 miles away

Explanation:

mathematically:-

speed is given in question

Time is given

and we have to find distance

simply by using speed formula (s) = d/t

we get answer

The bolt of  lightning is  0.8 miles far away.

What is speed?

The speed of any moving object is the ratio of the distance covered and the time taken to cover that distance.

Given, is a bolt of lightning and 4 s later we hear the thunderclap. If the speed of sound in air is 0.2 mi/s,

Speed = d/t

D = 0.2 x 4

D = 0.8 miles

Thus, the lightning is  0.8 miles far away.
