Question

. A sonar transmits an ultrasonic signal towards the bottom of
the sea. The time interval between the transmitting and
receiving of the signal is 1.6 seconds. If the speed of ultrasonic
sound in sea water is 1560m/s, find the depth of the sea.

Answer 1

Answer:

GIVEN DATA:

$time \: taken = 1.6sec$

$speed = 1560m persec$

REQUIRED:

Find Depth of the sea.

Explanation:

soner is an apolication by which we can find depth, by using the formula:

$s = v \times t \: divided \:by \: 2$

putting values:

$s = 1560 \times 1.6dividedby2$

$s = 1248mpersec$

RESULT:

The depth of the sea is 1248 m/s.
