A rock is dropped into an abandoned mine and a splash is heard 9 s later. Assuming that it takes a negligible time for the sound to travel up the mine shaft, determine the depth of the shaft and how fast the rock was falling when it hit the water.

A stone is dropped into a well. The sound of the splash is heard 4.80 s later. What is the depth of the well? (Take the speed of sound to be 343 m/s.)
A stone is dropped into a well. The sound of the splash is heard 4.15 s later. What is the depth of the well? (Take the speed of sound to be 343 m/s.)
A stone is dropped from rest into a well. The sound of the splash is heard exactly 4.00 s later. Find the depth of the well if the air temperature is 16.0°C. m
A stone is dropped from rest into a well. The sound of the splash is heard exactly 3.90 s later. Find the depth of the well if the air temperature is 16.0°C.

You drop a rock into a deep well and 4.6 s later hear the splash. How far down is the water? Neglect the travel time of the sound. Express your answer using two significant figures.
A stone is dropped from the top of a cliff. The splash it makes when striking the water below is heard 4.1s later. The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s. How high is the cliff?
A stone is dropped from the top of a cliff. The splash it makes when striking the water below is heard 3.5 s later. The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s. How high is the cliff? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
