Physics - Sound - Speed of sound - Sound Speed Experiment

A virtual experiment measuring the speed of sound. Method 1: Echo timing. Students see a cliff at an adjustable distance (100-500m). They 'clap' and measure the time for the echo. Calculate speed = 2d/t. Method 2: Two microphones at known distance apart. A sharp sound is made. The time difference be
