Answer:
Explanation:
Assuming that the TV signal is sent in a straight line from the camera to the TV receiver, which is very far from the truth.
The reporter hears the sound is
4.1 / 343 = 0.01195 s later
The viewer hears the sound from the TV is
2.9 / 343 = 0.00845s
the difference is 0.00845 sec
the question is how far the TV signal can travel in that time.
the distance between politician and TV set is
= 0.00845 * 3*10^8 m
= 2536 km
d = 2536km
