To calculate the time it takes for the sound of thunder to reach us, we need to know the distance between us and the location where the thunder originated. Let's assume this distance is 'd.'
The speed of sound remains constant at approximately 343 meters per second (m/s).
Therefore, the time it takes for the sound of thunder to reach us can be calculated using the formula:
Time = Distance / Speed
If we substitute the values, the equation becomes:
Time = d / 343 m/s
Without the distance value, we cannot determine the exact time it takes for the sound of thunder to reach us.
