What experiment could you perform to measure the speed of sound in air when you are provided with a starters gun a stop watch and tape measure?
One person holds the gun and the stopwatch. The other person walks away, unrolling the tape measure ast they go - and stops at an agreed distance. The first person fires the gun - and starts the stopwatch. The second person signals when they hear the shot - and the stopwatch is halted. Divide the time taken for the shot to be heard by the measured distance - and you have the speed of sound.

What is a stop watch?
It is a watch which is used to measure the time interval between two events. The stop watch is started at the fist event and stopped at the second. The time interval between the two events is either frozen on the display to give the user time to read it or it is recorded separately for later use. Stop watches for sporting events often measure time in hundredths of a second (which is much faster than most peoples' reflexes).
What tool could you use to see who is a faster swimmer?
