jet flying at an altitude of 6.30 km has a speed of Mach 1.80. The jet flies directly aboveyou, and when it does you start a timer. How much time passes before you hear the sonic boom

Explanation:

Speed = Distance/time

Time = distance/speed

Given:

Distance = 6.30km

Speed = 1.80km/hr

Required

Time = ?

Substitute the given parameters into the formula as shown:

Time = 6.3/1.8

Time = 3.5hr

Hence 3.5hr has passes before you hear the sonic booom

the independent variable, the one that is intentionally manipulated, is whether or not the car hits the barrier.

the dependent variable, the one that you measure the response in, is the distance that the washers travel.

they should be similar or the same
