What best describes a sonar wave

1 answer:

8 0

Sonar<span> (originally an acronym for Sound Navigation And Ranging) is a technique that uses sound propagation (usually underwater, as in submarine navigation) to navigate, communicate with or detect objects on or under the surface of the water, such as other vessels.</span>

tester [92]

Answer:

4.80 seconds

Explanation:

The velocity of sound is obtained from;

V= 2d/t

Where;

V= velocity of sound = 329.2 ms-1

d= distance from the wall = 790.5 m

t= time = the unknown

t= 2d/V

t= 2 × 790.5/ 329.2

t= 4.80 seconds

Find the density of seawater at a depth where the pressure is 500 atm if the density at the surface is 1100 kg/m^3 . Seawater ha

mixer [17]

The density of seawater at a depth where the pressure is 500 atm is $1124kg/m^3$

Explanation:

The relationship between bulk modulus and pressure is the following:

$B=\rho_0 \frac{\Delta p}{\Delta \rho}$

where

B is the bulk modulus

$\rho_0$ is the density at surface

$\Delta p$ is the variation of pressure

$\Delta \rho$ is the variation of density

In this problem, we have:

$B=2.3\cdot 10^9 N/m^2$ is the bulk modulus

$\rho_0 =1100 kg/m^3$

$\Delta p = p-p_0 = 500 atm - 1 atm = 499 atm = 5.05\cdot 10^7 Pa$ is the change in pressure with respect to the surface (the pressure at the surface is 1 atm)

Therefore, we can find the density of the water where the pressure is 500 atm as follows:

$\rho = \rho_0 + \Delta \rho = \rho_0+\frac{\rho_0 \Delta p}{B}=\rho_0 (1+\frac{\Delta p}{B})=(1100)(1+\frac{5.05\cdot 10^7}{2.3\cdot 10^9})=1124kg/m^3$

Explanation:

The greatest concentration of atomic mass is in the nucleus because it is made up of protons and neutrons. The electrons surrounding the nucleus don't have as much mass as protons or neutrons.
