Given:
The time taken by the sound to reflect from sea bed = 12 seconds.
To Find:
The depth of the sea.
Calculation:
- The speed of sound in water = 1480 m/s
- Distance travelled by the sound = Speed × Time
⇒ Distance travelled by the sound = 1480 × 12
⇒ Distance travelled by the sound = 17760 m
- The depth of sea = Distance travelled by sound / 2
⇒ The depth of sea = 17760 / 2
⇒ The depth of sea = 8880 m or 8.88 km
- So the depth of the sea as measured in the experiment will be 8.88 km.
