97. You watch a distant farmer driving a stake into the ground with a sledgehammer. He hits the stake at a regular rate of one stoke per second. You hear the sound of the blows exactly synchronized with the blows you see. And then you hear two more blows after you see him stop hammering. Calculate ( show your work) how for away is the farmer (You may have been using binoculars the see the farmer). (10 points)
