Problem

The position of a sound compression front is recorded every second, giving the following distance–time points: (0 m, 0 s)(0\,\text{m},\,0\,\text{s}) and (1020 m, 3 s)(1020\,\text{m},\,3\,\text{s}). Calculate the speed of the sound wave. (a) 680 m/s680\,\text{m/s} (b) 340 m/s340\,\text{m/s} (c) 255 m/s255\,\text{m/s} (d) 510 m/s510\,\text{m/s}
