    Assume that temperature varies linearly with height near the Earth's surface. Considering temperature at the surface of the Earth T_1 and T_2 at a height h above the surface, calculate the time t needed for a sound wave produced at a height. x. to reach the Earth's surface. Velocity of sound at the Earth's surface is c.
