How long does it take for the sound of thunder from lightning bolt that was 2km away to reach your ears?
Very close to 5 seconds.
Why is lightning seen before sound of thunder is heard even though both occurs simultaneously during thunder storms?
Because the speed of light is faster than the speed of sound. In fact, light arrives at the observer virtually instantaneously, but sound takes almost 5 seconds to travel each mile. It's simple to observe lightening then count seconds until the thunder is heard to estimate the distance.
Why does harmonic minor scale sound so dark?
The harmonic minor scale is a minor scale with a major 7th (1 2 b3 4 5 b6 7). This creates a 3 half-step gap between the minor 6th and major 7th, resulting in a dark, exotic sound.
What are 5 archetypes from a sound of thunder?
In Ray Bradbury's "A Sound of Thunder," five archetypes include the hero, represented by Eckels, who embarks on a journey that ultimately leads to a moral lesson; the mentor, embodied by Mr. Travis, who guides and warns Eckels; the trickster, seen in the butterfly that symbolizes the chaotic consequences of seemingly small actions; the threshold guardian, represented by the strict rules of time travel that Eckels must navigate; and the shadow, illustrated by the consequences of altering the past. These archetypes help convey themes of responsibility and the interconnectedness of actions across time.
How long does it take for the sound of thunder to travel 1485 m?
First of all, let's get our constants straight. "Miles" is not a speed, and thespeed of sound is not 330 miles per anything. 330 meters per second is areasonable value to use for the speed of sound.1,500/330 = 4.545 seconds.(rounded)

Very close to 5 seconds.
Does thunder flash 5 mins after lightning?
No, thunder actually happens simultaneously with lightning. The sound of thunder is created by the rapid expansion and contraction of the air surrounding a lightning bolt. The time it takes for you to hear thunder after seeing lightning depends on how far away the lightning strike is. Every 5 seconds between seeing a lightning flash and hearing the thunder equals approximately 1 mile of distance.

What are the similarities of thunder and lightning?
No, the two are quite different. The main difference is lightning is light, thunder is sound. Lightning is an electric charge that can come from a cloud for various reasons. Thunder is the sound made by lightning. Since sound travels slower than light, lightning comes first, thunder second.

How long does it take thunder to travel a mile?
A quick rule of thumb is 5 seconds. Since sound travels at a little over 1000 feet per second which is about a fifth of a mile. A better estimate is 1125 feet per second. 5280 / 1125 = 4.693 seconds
When an explosion in the atmosphere occurs Why do you see lightning before the thunder heard?
this is because you hear the thunder after it actually makes the sound ( because sound travells ) . lightenging and thunder happen at exactly the same time... so if u see lightenging, try counting how many seconds until u hear the thunder. if it is 5 seconds the storm is 5 miles away into the sky, 6 seconds would be 6 miles 7secs 7 miles and so on. hope this helped :) xx
How long would it take thunder from a lightning strike 5 miles away to get to you?
Around 26.2 seconds. Since the sound of thunder travels approximately 340.33 meters per second 340.33 x 5 = 1.701.65 1 mile = 1,609,34 Meters 1.701.65 x 5 = 8.508.25 1.609.34 goes into 8.508.25 5 times, and leaves the remainder 461.55 461.55 - 340.33 = 121.22 5 x 5 +1.2 = 26.2 so about 26.2 seconds Hope this helps :) and Please correct me if I am wrong.
How long does it take for thunder to travel a mile?
By way of some "round" math, (rounding quotients to the nearest whole numbers), I have extrapolated 5 seconds as a decent "Rule of thumb". Thunder will go *approximately* 1 mile every 5 seconds, at average. Humidity, elevation, etc. affect air density, which affects the speed of sound, but negligibly for this answer. So, see the flash, count 5, 1 mile (approximately).
