Assume that temperature varies linearly with height near the Earth's surface. Considering temperature at the surface of the Earth T_1 and T_2at a height h above the surface, calculate the time t needed for a sound wave produced at a height. x. to reach the Earth's surface. Velocity of sound at the Earth's surface is c. |

Answer» `t = (2h)/(c ) (sqrtT_1)/((T_2 - T_1)) [ sqrtT_1- sqrt((T_2 - T_1)/(H))x + T_1]` |
