    The cliff is 5916.75 m far

    Explanation:

    Echo: This is a sound heard after the reflection of sound wave from a plane surface.

    v = 2x/t ... Equation 1

    making x the subject of the equation above,

    x = vt/2 ... Equation 2

    Where v = speed of sound in air, x = distance of the cliff, t = time to produce an echo

    Given: t = 34.50 s,

    Constant: v = 343 m/s

    Substituting these values into equation 2,

    x = 343*34.5/2

    x = 5916.75 m.

    Thus the cliff is 5916.75 m far
