A man standing in front of a mountain beats a drum at regular intervals. The rate of drumming is generally increased and he finds that the echo is not heard distinctly when the rate becomes $40$ per minute. He then moves nearer to the mountain by $90 m$ and finds that echo is again not heard when the drumming rate becomes $60$ per minute. The distance between the mountain and the initial position of the man is .... $m$
