<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.

Give examples of how communities or homes reduce pollution.
JulijaS [17]

Some ways would be to use less gas-powered items, such as some stoves. Communities can encourage carpools and walking. If you  were to drive, don't gun the gas and drive at moderate speeds.

In your own home you can conserve energy by turning off lights and electronic devices when not in use.  You could also use energy efficient light-bulbs.

In the spring, grass often dies near the roads that have been salted because, after salt has been applied and it fell on grasses, the salts penetstrate through the plant cell, and dehydrate water from the cells of the plant. Which result in loss of water in the cell and this make the cell not to be able to perform it's functions because of loss of water and hence because water us essential for it and it is lost, grasses dies.
