Current Attempt in Progress
A hunter is standing on flat ground between two vertical cliffs that are directly opposite one another. He is closer to one cliff than the other. He fires a gun and, after a while, hears three echoes. The second echo arrives 2.00 s after the first, and the third echo arrives 1.78 s after the second. Assuming that the speed of sound is 343ms and that there are no reflections of sound from the ground, find the distance (in m ) between the cliffs.
