Explanation :

The full form of SONAR is Sound Navigation and Ranging. It consists of a transmitter and a detector. This effect is used to find the depth of the sea and to know the location of submarines, valleys etc.

The ultrasonic waves move through the water. It strikes the sea bed and reflected back. The detectors detect it.

Let the speed of sound in seawater is v and it takes t time in the transmitting and receiving ultrasonic waves. The total distance in transmitting and receiving signal is 2d.

So, $2d=v\times t$

Hence, the given figure works on the principle of SONAR.

In the diagram, the ship send sound(?) waves to the water, to determine if there is anything there. If there is something like a sunken ship shown in the diagram, the waves return in a shorter time hence you can understand if theres something or now. This is the principle of radars and sonars.

A 1.0-kilogram rubber ball traveling east at 4.0 meters per second hits a wall and bounces back toward the west at 2.0 meters pe

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

8 J and 2 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the rubber ball, m = 1 kg

Initial speed of the rubber ball, u = 4 m/s (in east)

Final speed of the rubber ball, v = -2 m/s (in west)

We need to find the kinetic energy of the ball before it hits the wall, the kinetic energy of the ball after it bounces off the wall.

Initial kinetic energy,

$K_i=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\K_i=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1\times (4)^2\\\\K_i=8\ J$

Final kinetic energy,

$K_f=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\K_f=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1\times (2)^2\\\\K_f=2\ J$

So, the initial kinetic energy is 8 J and the final kinetic energy is 2 J.

A motorboat and a pwc are approaching head-on. what action should be taken?

SashulF [63]

In this situation, both of the vehicles turn towards starboard.

By turning to the starboard, or right, side, the vehicles are able to avoid collision. Because waterways are not marked in a manner like roads are, it is necessary to place such conventions of turning in situations where vehicles approach one another head on. If a convention was not in place, the risk of collision would be many times greater. For example, the motorboat operator may turn left, while the PWC operator turns right, resulting in a collision.
