A sonar pulse sent out by a boat arrives back after 4 seconds. If the speed of sound in water is 1600m/s, how deep is the water? *

Respuesta :

Answer:

the boat would be deeped by 3200 m

Explanation:

Given that

The boat arrives back after 4 seconds

And, the speed of the sound in water is 1,600 m/s

We need to find out how much deep is the water

So,

As we know that

Distance = ( speed × time) ÷ 2

Here we divided by 2 because the boat arrives back

= (1600 × 4) ÷ 2

= 3200 m

Therefore the boat would be deeped by 3200 m
