The speed of sound in air is 330 ms^(-1) and in water is 1650 ms^(-1). It takes 2 s for sound to reach a certain distance from the source placed in air. How much time will it take for sound to reach the same distance when the source is in water ? |
Answer» Solution :In water, V = 1650 m `s^(-1)` , d = 660 m `therefore ` TIME taken by sound to travel the DISTANCE d in water will be `t= d/V = (660 m)/(1650 ms^(-1)) = 0.4 s` |
