A supersonic plane passes overhead at a speed of 500 m/s. If you hear the sonic boom (shock wave) 4.00 s after the plane is directly overhead, at what altitude is the altitude the plane flying? Assume the speed of sound in air is 340 m/s.
 
  A)
 
  1.36 km
  B)
 
  2.16 km
  C)
 
  1.85 km
  D)
 
  2.45 km
  E)
 
  The plane is not flying fast enough to produce a shock wave.
