An archer fires an arrow, which produces a muffled "thwok" sound after it hits a target. The archer hears the "thwok" exactly 3.0 s after firing the arrow and the average speed of the arrow is 32 m/s. Find the distance separating the archer and the target? Use 340 m/ s for the speed of sound.

time = distance / velocity
(distance / arrow speed) + (distance / sound speed) = 3.0
(distance / arrow speed) + (distance / sound speed) = 3.0
