Do the math: How many seconds would it take an echo sounder’s ping to make the trip from a ship to the Challenger Deep (10,994 m

eters) and back? Recall that depth in meters = ½ (1500 m/sec × Echo travel time in seconds). Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answer:

<h2>14.66secs</h2>

Explanation:

Given the formula for calculating the depth in metres expressed as

depth in meters = ½ (1500 m/sec × Echo travel time in seconds)

Given depth of the challenger = 10, 994 meters, we will substitute this given value into the formula given to calculate the time take for the echo to travel.

10, 994 = depth in meters = ½ * 1500 m/sec × Echo travel time in seconds

10,994 = 750 * Echo travel time in seconds

Dividing both sides by 750;

Echo travel time in seconds = 10,994 /750

Echo travel time in seconds ≈ 14.66secs (to two decimal places)

Therefore, it would take an echo sounder’s ping 14.66secs to make the trip from a ship to the Challenger Deep and back

These four surfaces are opaque; that is they reflect or absorb certain rays of light determine the color
masya89 [10]
In the first figure, the surface absorbs all colors except for green light, which is reflected: so, the surface will appear as green to our eyes, because green is the only color which is reflected by that surface.

Similarly, in the  second figure, the surface absorbs all colors except for blue, and so the surface will appear blue to our eyes.

In the third figure, the surface absorbs all colors, so it will appear black to our eyes (because no colors are reflected, and black=absence of colors).

In the fourth figure, all colors are reflected: this means the surface will appear white to our eyes (white= sum of all colors).

A box with a mass of 40 kg sits at rest on a frictionless tile floor. with your foot, you apply a 20 N force in a horizontal dir
Grace [21]

Answer:

0.5 m/s²

Explanation:

according to Newton's second law, we are goven a relationship between force, mass and acceleration, with the formula:

F = m×a

F for force

m for mass

a for acceleration

we use the given data and get:

20 = 40×a

we find a=20/40=0.5m/s²

The lowest surface temperature in the solar system (-200°c occurs on
zimovet [89]
The lowest surface temperature in the solar system was recorded on Uranus (-224 degrees Celsius). The temperature of a planet does not only depend on the amount of solar radiation that it receives but also on the amount of heat that it gives off. Because of Uranus' orientation it absorbs little radiation which makes it colder than Neptune although Neptune is further away from the Sun. <span />
