= (distance covered) divided by (time to cover the distance)

= ( 90 / 4.5 ) = 20 feet per second

If a thunderstorm is 10 kilometers away How long does it take for the sound to reach you after you see the lightning?

Just under 30 seconds. The speed of sound in air is 1100 feet per second. To cover 10K (which is 6.2 miles), you could multiply 6.2 by 5,280 (the number of feet in a mile), which gives you 32,736 ft. Then divide the number of feet by the speed of sound, and you get 29.76 seconds. Roughly converted the speed of sound is 330 meters per second so it takes 3 second per kilometer, so 30 seconds
