Answer:

Time, t = 0.104 seconds

Explanation:

Frequency of the click of the Dolphin, f = 55.3 kHz

A dolphin sends out a series of clicks that are reflected back from the bottom of the ocean 80 m below, d = 80 m

The speed of sound in seawater is, v = 1530 m/s

Once the sound is send and reflects, the total distance covered by it is 2d such that,

t=\dfrac{2d}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{2\times 80}{1530}\\\\t=0.104\ s

So, the time elapses before the dolphin hears the echoes of the clicks is 0.104 seconds.

What is the difference between heat temperature and thermal energy?
igomit [66]
Well Thermal energy is an example of kinetic energy, as it is due to the motion of particles, with motion being the key. Thermal energy results in an object or a system having a temperature that can be measured. Thermal energy can be transferred from one object or system to another in the form of heat. While <span>Heat energy (or thermal energy or simply heat) is defined as a form of energy which transfers among particles in a substance (or system) by means of kinetic energy of those particles. In other words, under kinetic theory, the heat is transferred by particles bouncing into each other.</span>

In which of the following materials is the velocity of light greatest?
just olya [345]
<span>The velocity of light is by far the greatest in air. There is nothing in air to stop or impede the movement of light in air. When light travels in air it will not stop unless running into clouds, smoke, smoke, droplets, or impurities. Any other substance is harder for light to travel through.</span>
