(BRAINLIEST W/ WORK SHOWN!!!) Help with Physics question?

A sound wave traveling at 343 m/s takes 10.0 s to go from a speaker to a detector. How far apart are the two devices?
A.) 3.43 x 10^3
B.) 3.43 x 10^2
C.) 3.43 x 10^-1
D.) 3.43 x 10^4

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {3.43 x 10^{3}}[/tex]

Explanation:

We know that speed is defined as distance moved per unit time hence expressed as [tex]v=\frac {d}{t}[/tex] where v is speed in m/s, d is distance in m and t is time in seconds. Making d the subject of the above formula then

[tex]d=vt[/tex]

Substituting 343 m/s for d and 10 s for t then

[tex]d= 343\times10= 3430= 3.43 x 10^{3}[/tex]

Therefore, the distance between speaker and deter is [tex]\boxed {3.43 x 10^{3}}[/tex]
