I got -3.6 m/s but I had to do conservation of momentum for this question. Which involves Newtons third law but with simply that law I do not know how to complete this question. If you would like me to post my work I will though! Sorry
The specific heat of the metal, assuming no heat is exchanged with the surroundings is 2140 J/(kg•K).
<h3>
Specific heat capacity of the metal</h3>
The specific heat capacity of the metal is determined from the principle of conservation of energy.
energy lost by the metal = energy gained by aluminum + energy gained by water
Q = mcΔθ
where;
- m is mass (kg)
- c is specific heat capacity
- Δθ is change in temperature
0.425c(100 - 40) = 0.1(900)(40 - 15) + 0.5(4186)(40 - 15)
25.5c = 2250 + 52,325
c = 54,575/25.5
c = 2140 J/(kg•K)

Answer: The minimum time between pulses (in fresh water)
= 0.3106 s
Explanation:
To calculate the speed of echoes sounds, we will use
Speed = 2x/t
Where x = distance and t = total time.
Please note that:
sound travels at 343 m/s in air. But it travels at 1,481 m/s in water (almost 4.3 times as fast as in air);
Total distance = 2 × 230 = 460m
Using speed of sound in water
1481 = 460/t
t = 460/1481
t = 0.3106
The solution for this problem is:
A velocity of wave is given as V = λ⋅f
V - velocity of wave
f - frequency of wave
λ - wave length
So getting the wave length is:
λ = V/f
λminimum = V / fmaximum
λminimum = 342 / 4200
λminimum = 0.081 m
λmaximum = V/ fminimum
λmaximum = 342 / 28
λmaximum = 12.214 m
