प्रश्न
What minimum distance is required between the source of sound and the reflecting surface to hear an echo ? Give reason.
उत्तर
Since sound has to travel an equal distance in going up to the reflecting surface and in coming back from the reflecting surface, therefore it must travel nearly 33/2 = 16.5 m either way. Thus, to hear the echo clearly in air, the reflecting surface should be at a minimum distance of 16.5 m from the source of sound.
