Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Time for echo both ways = 0.8
Therefore time for echo in 1 way = 0.8/2 = 0.4
Distance = Speed x time
Distance = 340 x 0.4
Distance = 136m
Time for echo both ways = 0.8
Therefore time for echo in 1 way = 0.8/2 = 0.4
Distance = Speed x time
Distance = 340 x 0.4
Distance = 136m
