Question:

A father and his daughter are interested in the same baseball game. The father sits next to his radio at home and listens to the game; his daughter attends the game and sits in the outfield bleachers. In the bottom of the ninth inning a home run is hit. If the father's radio is 132 km from the radio station, and the daughter is 115 m from home plate, who hears the home run first? (Assume that there is no time delay between the baseball being hit and its sound being broadcast by the radio station. In addition, let the speed of sound in the stadium be 343 m/s.)
