A person is standing at the seashore. An observer on the ship which is anchored in between a vertical cliff and the person on the shore fires a gun. The person on the shore hears two sounds, 2 seconds and 3 seconds after seeing the smoke of the fired gun. If the speed of sound in the air is 320 ms-1 then calculate:
1) the distance between the observer on the ship and the person on the shore.
2) the distance between the cliff and the observer on the ship.

उत्तर
1) `d_1 = 320 xx 1.5 = 320 xx 1.5 = 640 m`
2) `d_2 = 320/2 = 160 m`
