A stone is dropped into a well and the sound of inpact of stone on the water is heard after 2.056 sec of the release of stone form the top. If acc. Due to gravity is `980 cm//sec^(2)` and velocity of sound in air is `350 m//s`, calculate the depth of the well.

To solve the problem of calculating the depth of the well based on the time taken for a stone to hit the water and the sound of the impact to travel back up, we can break the solution down into several steps. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Problem**: - A stone is dropped into a well. - The total time taken from the release of the stone to hearing the sound of impact is 2.056 seconds. - The acceleration due to gravity (g) is 980 cm/s² (which we will convert to m/s²). ...
