MCQ
A man fires a bullet standing between two cliffs. First echo is heard after $3$ seconds and second echo is heard after $ 5$ seconds. If the velocity of sound is $330 m/s$, then the distance between the cliffs is .... $m$
  • A
    $1650$
  • $1320$
  • C
    $990$
  • D
    $660 $

Answer

Correct option: B.
$1320$
b
(b) $2({d_1} + {d_2}) = v({t_1} + {t_2})$==>${d_1} + {d_2} = \frac{{330 \times (3 + 5)}}{2} = 1320$ $m$
