guys the answr is 660....think of it...in the question...there wasnt any form of reflection of sound....it juat said that how far would he hear the sound after the lighting clap...
and V = D/t
330 = D/2
D = 330 ×2
D = 660 m

V=2d/t...v=330,d=?,t=2....330=2d/2...660=2d,d=660/2,d=330m

Distance = Speed * Time
Speed = 330ms^-1
Time = 2secs
Therefore, Distance = 660m

V=F*Λ...and F=1/T.. : ◦ V=Λ/T...v=wave speed, Λ=Wave Length(landar) and T=time...
