Sound travels at a speed of approximately 343 meters per second in air at room temperature. Therefore, in 2 seconds, sound can travel up to 686 meters.

A bat flying in a cave emits a sound pulse and receives an echo in 2 seconds. How far away is the cave wall?

The sound wave travels to the wall and back in 2 seconds, so the total travel time is 2 seconds. To find the distance, divide the total time by 2 (since the sound has to travel there and back), giving a distance of 1 second for the sound wave to reach the wall. Multiply this time by the speed of sound in air (approximately 343 m/s) to find the distance, which is about 343 meters.


How long do sounds take to travel?

To travel where? - That would depend on the distance you want it to travel. In air, sound moves at about 310 meters per second (depends on the temperature). This is about 1,236 kilometers per hour (or 768 mph).


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.

How long would it take for a sound impulse to travel through an aluminum rod 1500 meters long?

Depends on the relative density of the Aluminum, the frequency of the sound impulse, the decibel level of the sound impulse, and lastly the temperature of the Aluminum.Lastly, Who has an Aluminum rod 1500 meters long?

How far will you travel if you run for 10 minutes at 2 meters per second?

1 minute = 60 seconds so 10 mintes = 10*60 = 600 seconds. 2 metres per second = 2*600 = 1200 metres in 600 seconds


How far do you travel in 2 second at 100km?

100 km per what time? speed is not given. Assume speed = 100 km/hour Then in 2 seconds you travel: 100 km/h = 100000/3600 m/second = 1000/36 meter/second in 2 seconds you travel 2000/36 meters = 500/9 meters = 55.6 meters

How can you determine how far lightning is away from sound?

You can determine how far away lightning is by counting the seconds between seeing the lightning and hearing the thunder, and then dividing by 5 to get the distance in miles or by 3 to get the distance in kilometers. Sound travels at a speed of about 1 kilometer per 3 seconds or 1 mile per 5 seconds.

The sound wave is directed towards a cliff that is 680 meters away from the source of the sound An echo wave is heard 4 seconds after the wave is produced What is the period of the sound wave?

The time it takes for the sound to travel to the cliff and back as an echo is 4 seconds. Since the sound wave travels twice the distance to the cliff and back, the total distance traveled is 2 × 680 = 1360 meters. Using the formula speed = distance/time, we can calculate the speed of sound. The period of the sound wave is the time it takes for one complete cycle, which in this case is the time it takes for the sound to travel to the cliff and back, which we found to be 4 seconds.
