Important Questions on Sound

EASY
A girl drops a ball from a height h=20 m. It strikes the ground elastically and returns to her hand. An echo of the thud of the ball striking the ground is produced from a nearby cliff. The echo is head at exactly the same moment when the ball returns to the girl's hand. (Take g = 10 ms-2  and vsound=350 ms-1). The distance of the cliff from the girls is close to:
EASY

A person clapped his hands near a cliff and heard the echo after 4 s. The distance between the cliff and the person will be :

(Speed of sound is 346 m s-1

Sound travels at a speed of 1450 ms-1through water. A submarine detects objects around it by sending sound waves and detecting echo (reflected sound) heard after 4 s. Then the object must be at a distance of:
