<h2>Two pieces of information </h2>

Sonar is an instrument which is used to search for things which are underwater. It is also used to find the depth of water by giving out ultrasonic vibrations into the water. The time which the vibrations take to return assists to find the distance of the reflecting surface.

The correct answer is:

• velocity of the wave and  

• the return time of the wave.

Echo sound is the method for determination the water depth, based on transmitting sound waves into water. Two things that are recorded are the time interval between emission and return of a pulse and the speed of sound in water at the time.

How is the lithosphere different from the mantle?
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

The uppermost portion of the mantle makes up the bottom portion of the lithosphere. On average, it is 30 kilometers thick, but its thickness depends on the age of that portion of the lithosphere and temperature and pressure conditions. The mantle consists largely of heavy ultramafic rock like olivine.

Explanation:

The mantle is made up of molten rock called magma. This magma circulates in currents determined by the cooling and sinking of heavier minerals and the heating and rising of lighter minerals. All but the very uppermost portion of the mantle is part of the asthenosphere, which refers to the liquid zone of the inner Earth.
