Answer:

a = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The velocity of a sound wave in a straight line is 660 mph. The wave is moving with a constant velocity. It means that the change in velocity is equal to 0.

We know that acceleration of an object is equal to the change in velocity divided by time taken. But here the change in velocity is 0. As a result the acceleration of the sound wave is 0.
