A motion sensor emits sound, and
detects an echo 0.0115 s after. A
short time later, it again emits a
sound, and hears an echo after
0.0183 s. How far has the
reflecting object moved?

Answer:

1.17m

Explanation:

The formula to find distance is d=vt/2

This problem is asking for how far the reflecting object has moved so you need to find the distance from the motion sensor at both times.

(343)(0.115) / (2) = 1.97

(343)(0.0183) /(2) =3.14

After that, all you have to do is find the difference so

3.14 - 1.97

= 1.17
