Find the distance of cloud from you hear a thunder 3 sec after the
lighting is seen Given speed of light =3×10 M/sec speed of
sound 330m/sec why is lighting seen a Few seconds before the
thunder is heard during a thunderstorm ?

Abc · Answer

Distance of cloud = Speed of sound x time taken = 330 x 3 = 990
m

Light travels faster than sound (speed of light c = 3 x
108) So lightning is seen before and thunder is heard a
little later
