Observations: Pulses and wave motion and Mathematical descriptions of a wave

Assume that the speed of sound in air is 340 m/s for all of these problems unless stated otherwise.

Antarctic ice Radio waves travel at a speed of 1.7 x 108 m/s through ice. A radio wave pulse sent into the Antarctic ice reflects off the rock at the bottom and returns to the surface in 32.9 x 10-6 s. How deep is the ice? What assumptions did you make to solve the problem?
