A bat flying in a cave emits a sound and receives its echo 0.1 s later.

How far away is the cave wall? Assume the speed of sound to be 340 m/s.
Answer in units of m. How do you do this?

d = r*t = 340 * (0.1/2) = 17 m.

nvm i got 17

To find the distance to the cave wall, we can use the formula:

Distance = Speed * Time

Given that the speed of sound is 340 m/s and the time delay is 0.1 s, we can substitute these values into the formula:

Distance = 340 m/s * 0.1 s

Calculating this expression:

Distance = 34 m

Therefore, the cave wall is 34 meters away from the bat.

To calculate the distance between the bat and the cave wall, we can use the formula:

Distance = Speed * Time

In this case, the speed of sound is given as 340 m/s and the time between emitting the sound and receiving its echo is 0.1 s.

Plugging these values into the formula:

Distance = 340 m/s * 0.1 s

Distance = 34 m

Therefore, the distance between the bat and the cave wall is 34 meters.
