Re: Re: Homework Problem

That will tell you how long it takes for the stone to hit the bottom of the shaft. You then have to figure out how long it takes for the sound of the stone hitting the bottom to reach the top. time = distance/velcoity

time = 122.5/343(assuming this is the speed of sound)
time = 0.357 seconds
therefore the answer should be 5.357 seconds
