.05 x 343 meters (not miles) = 17.15 meters

That's the total distance covered by the squeek, from bat to bug and back to bat.

So the distance from the bat to the bug is 1/2 of that = 8.575 meters = about 28 feet.

Inspiringly, there are many blind people who have developed the ability to make

soft mouth clicks and navigate by the echos, and they're very good at it.

The echo of a ship's fog horn reflected from an iceberg is heard 8.0 seconds after the horn is sounded How far away is the iceberg?

The echo indicates an approximate distance of 1325.2 meters. At 0 degrees Celsius, sound travels at about 331.3 m/sec at sea level, so the sound travelled 2650.4 meters in 8 seconds. Half of that was on the way to the iceberg and half was the return time. * variations with pressure and humidity can affect the ideal speed, and it may range from 331.2 to 331.6 m/second.
