Answer:Sample Response: Submarines can release sound waves. These sound waves will hit the bottom of the ocean and be reflected back to the submarine as echoes. The submarine can use these echoes to tell how far it is from the bottom of the ocean.

To locate a specific target or to determine how close submarines are to the seafloor, they use active and passive sound navigation and ranging (or a SONAR, in simple terms.) It emits pulses of sound waves that travel through the water, reflect off the target and relayed back to the ship. By determining how fast the sound wave travels back, the computers on the sub calculate how far they are from the target.

Hope this helps.

Goshia [24]

Answer:

ΔF=125.22 %

Explanation:

We know that drag force on the car given as

$F_D=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho C_DA v^2$

$C_D$ =Drag coefficient

A=Projected area

v=Velocity

ρ=Density

All other quantity are constant so we can say that drag force and velocity can be given as

$\dfrac{F_D_1}{F_D_2}=\dfrac{v_1^2}{v_2^2}$

Now by putting the values

$\dfrac{F_D_1}{F_D_2}=\dfrac{v_1^2}{v_2^2}$

$\dfrac{F_D_1}{F_D_2}=\dfrac{50^2}{75^2}$

$\dfrac{F_D_1}{F_D_2}=0.444$

Percentage Change in the drag force

$\Delta F=\dfrac{F_D_2-F_D_1}{F_D_1}\times 100$

$\Delta F=\dfrac{F_D_2-0.444F_D_2}{0.444F_D_2}\times 100$

$\Delta F=\dfrac{1-0.444}{0.444}\times 100$

ΔF=125.22 %

Therefore force will increase by 125.22 %.
