How does Sonar work?i will mark brainliest pls help

I don't like the wording of any of the choices on the list.

SONAR generates a short pulse of sound, like a 'peep' or a 'ping',
focused in one direction.  If there's a solid object in that direction,
then some of the sound that hits it gets reflected back, toward the
source.  The source listens to hear if any of the sound that it sent
out returns to it.  If it hears its own 'ping' come back, it measures
the time it took for the sound to go out and come back.  That tells
the SONAR equipment that there IS a solid object in that direction,
and also HOW FAR away it is.

RADAR works exactly the same way, except RADAR uses radio waves.

Briefly explain how a resonance tube works​
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

As the tines of the tuning fork vibrate at their own natural frequency, they created sound waves that impinge upon the opening of the resonance tube. These impinging sound waves produced by the tuning fork force air inside of the resonance tube to vibrate at the same frequency.

Show the weight of the ladder and draw the missing Frictional force.
madreJ [45]
Since there is no friction between the ladder and the wall, there can be no vertical force component. That's the tricky part ;)

So to find the weight, divide the 100N <em>normal</em> force by earths gravitational acceleration, 9.8m/s^2

W =  \frac{N}{g}  =  \frac{100N}{9.8m/s^{2}} =  \frac{100}{9.8} = 10.2kg


Then;
Draw an arrow at the base of the ladder pointing towards the wall with a value of 30N, to show the frictional force.

The core of a 400 Hz aircraft transformer has a net cross-sectional area of 13 cm2. The maximum flux density is 0.9 T, and there
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

32.76 Volt

Explanation:

frequency, f = 400 Hz

Area of crossection, A = 13 cm²

Maximum flux density, B = 0.9 tesla

Number of turns in secondary coil, N = 70

Let the maximum induced voltage is e.

According to the Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction, the induced emf is equal to the rate of change of magnetic flux.

e = dФ/dt

e=\frac{NBA}{t}

Time is defined as the reciprocal of frequency.

So, e = N B A f

e = 70 x 0.9 x 13 x 10^-4 x 400

e = 32.76 volt

A truck covers 47.0 m in 8.60 s while smoothly slowing down to final speed of 2.30 m/s. (a) Find its original speed.
Kruka [31]

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance, s = 47 m

Time taken, t = 8.6 s

Final speed of the truck, v = 2.3 m/s

Let u is the initial speed of the truck and a is its acceleration such that :

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}.............(1)

Now, the second equation of motion is :

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Put the value of a in above equation as :

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{v-u}{t}\times t^2

s=\dfrac{t(u+v)}{2}

u=\dfrac{2s}{t}-v

u=\dfrac{2\times 47}{8.6}-2.3

u = 8.63 m/s

So, the original speed of the truck is 8.63 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

A man walks 7 km, east in 2 hours and 2 km in 1 hour in the same direction. a) what is
Rzqust [24]

Explanation:

Average speed = distance / time

|v| = (7 km + 2 km) / (2 hr + 1 hr)

|v| = 3 km/hr

Average velocity = displacement / time

v = (7 km east + 2 km east) / (2 hr + 1 hr)

v = 3 km/hr east
