Sound has a velocity of 343 m/s
First convert the 4 hours into seconds. In this case multiply by 60 (converts into minutes) and then by 60 (converts into seconds) again. This gives you a time of 14400 seconds.
Multiply the velocity of sound by the time and you get a distance of 4939200 meters.
Now to convert to kilometres divide that answer by 1000 which.
The answer you get should be 4939.2 km.
