3- During the storm K. Lear saw a flash of lightning. After 10 sec had elapsed, he heard thunder. The speed of sound in air at room temperature is about 1100 ft/sec ( or about 3.4 x 10^4 cm/ sec). How far away from him did the lightning originate?

There is a delay from the time someone sees a flash of lightning to the time that thunder is heard due to the time it takes for sound to travel from where the lightning struck to where you are when you hear the thunder. If you hear thunder 13.6 seconds after seeing the lightning, how far away did the lightning bolt strike? Take the speed of sound in air to be 343 m/s. Answer in metres.

Suppose that during a thunder-storm you hear a clap of thunder 6.06 seconds after you see a lightning strike. How far away are you from the lightning strike? Assume room temperature air. Assume light travels so fast that you see the lightning nearly instantaneously.

It was a dark and stormy night, when suddenly you saw a flash of lightning. Six and a half seconds later you heard the thunder. Given that the speed of sound in air is about 340 m/s, how far away was the lightning bolt? (Ignore the travel time for the flash of light.)
