if you shout in the grand canyon, your voice travels at the speed of sound (340 m/s) to the bottom of the canyon and back, and you hear an echo. how deep is the grand canyon at a spot where you can hear your echo 5.2 seconds after you shout? group of answer choices 65.38 meters



Answer :

884 m deep is the grand canyon at a spot where we can hear your echo sound 5.2 seconds after we shout.

speed of sound = 340 m/s

Time  echo= 5.2 s.

h = depth of the canyon.

Because the sound of our voice travels to the bottom of the canyon and back to our ear, the total distance traveled is 2h.

distance = velocity × time.

2h = (340 m/s)× (5.2 s) = 1768 m

h = 884 m

The phrase used to describe the sound is called an echo. It is based on the idea of sound reflection. After the original sound has faded, we hear the reflected sound.

Additional requirements for clearly hearing an echo are: The reflector's size must be sufficient in relation to the sound wave's wavelength and the emitted sound's power should be high enough to make the reflected sound noticeable.
