Echo Point ended on 1995-12-01.
The wave travels at 320m/s The echo is heard 2.07 seconds later In 2.7 seconds, the sound wave has traveled 350m/s*2.07s=724.5m Because the sound wave has traveled the distance from the tugboat to the reflecting object twice(once going out, once back), the final distance must be divided by 2 724.5m/2=362.25m The reflecting object is 362.25m away
We clearly heard you say "one complete cycle every 2 seconds". That means that the period is 2 seconds. No calculation or arithmetic of any kind is needed.
The total distance traveled by the sound wave is 2 m. At a rate of 330 m/s, it will take 0.00606 seconds for the bat to hear the echo.
