Example velocity problem, speed of sound:
Speed of Sound at Patton park today is(330 m/s). The temperature change, moisture in the air, medium through which it travels, and other variables affect the speed of sound. Today, though, the speed of sound is stable at 330 m/s. If I am standing at Jeff's house 1 kilometer away. How long does it take for Brian to hear the concert start?

STEP #1

v = 330 m/s
d = 1 km time = distance/velocity or t = d/v
t =

STEP #2

v = 330 m/s
d = 1000 m
t =

STEP #3

time = 1000m/330(m/s)
t = 3.03 seconds
