Determine the difference in the speed of the light in air from the lightning strike (3 * 105 km/sec) and the speed of the sound in air from the thunder (3 * 10-1 km/sec) and calculate the distance to the lightning.
In 5 seconds the light travels so far that it can for all intents and purposes be considered instantaneous. We are left with the speed of the sound of thunder. 5 seconds is 1,5 km.
