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.

A demented scientist creates a new temperature scale, the "Z scale." He decides to call the boiling point of nitrogen 0°Z and th

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

A) $Z = 0.577 C +112.931$

$Z = 0.577*(100) +112.931=170.631 Z$

B) $C=\frac{Z-112.931}{0.577}= \frac{100-112.931}{0.577}=-22.41 C$

C) $K = C +273.15$

$K = -22.41 +273.15 =250.739 K$

Explanation:

For this case we want to create a function like this:

$Z = a C + b$

Where Z represent the degrees for the Z scale C the Celsius grades and tha valus a and b parameters for the model.

The boiling point of nitrogen is -195,8 °C

The melting point of iron is 1538 °C

We know the following equivalences:

-195.8 °C = 0 °Z

1538 °C = 1000 °Z

Let's say that one point its (1538C, 1000 Z) and other one is (-195.8 C, 0Z)

So then we can calculate the slope for the linear model like this:

$a = \frac{z_2 -z_1}{c_2 -c_1}= \frac{1000 Z- 0Z}{1538C -(-195.8 C)}=\frac{1000 Z}{1733.8 C}=0.577 \frac{Z}{C}$

And now for the slope we can use one point let's use for example (-195.8C, 0Z), and we have this:

$0 = 0.577 (-195.8) + b$

And if we solve for b we got:

$b = 0.577*195.8 =112.931 Z$

So then our lineal model would be:

$Z = 0.577 C +112.931$

Part A

The boiling point of water is 100C so we just need to replace in the model and see what we got:

$Z = 0.577*(100) +112.931=170.631 Z$

Part B

For this case we have Z =100 and we want to solve for C, so we can do this:

$Z-112.931 = 0.577 C$

$C=\frac{Z-112.931}{0.577}= \frac{100-112.931}{0.577}=-22.41 C$

Part C

For this case we know that $K = C +273.15$

And we can use the result from part B to solve for K like this:

$K = -22.41 +273.15 =250.739 K$

In a carnival booth, you can win a stuffed giraffe if you toss a quarter into a small dish. the dish is on a shelf above the poi

Georgia [21]

components of the speed of the coin is given as

$v_x = v cos60$

$v_x = 6.4 cos60 = 3.2 m/s$

$v_y = vsin60$

$v_y = 6.4 sin60 = 5.54 m/s$

now the time taken by the coin to reach the plate is given by

$t = \frac{\delta x}{v_x}$

$t = \frac{2.1}{3.2}$

$t = 0.656 s$

now in order to find the height

$h = vy * t + \frac{1}{2} at^2$

$h = 5.54 * 0.656 - \frac{1}{2}*9.8*(0.656)^2$

$h = 1.52 m$

so it is placed at 1.52 m height

An electric generator converts kinetic energy into --------<br> energy.

pickupchik [31]

The correct answer to the question is : Electric energy

EXPLANATION :

As per the question, we have an electric generator.

Before coming into any conclusion, first we have to understand the function of generator.

The generator is attached to the turbine. When the turbine rotates, the generator also starts rotating with it. Thanks to electromagnetic induction, the electricity is produced in the coil attached to the generator when it rotates.

Hence, from above, it is obvious that kinetic energy is converted into electric energy.

How do you find the water pressure at the bottom of the 55-m-high water tower?

svp [43]

-- What's the volume of a cylinder with radius=1m and height=55m ?

   ( Volume of a cylinder = π R² h )

-- How much does that volume of water weigh ?

    1 liter of water = 1 kilogram of mass
Weight = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity)

-- What's the area of the bottom of that 1m-radius cylinder ?

   Pressure = (force) / (area)
