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

Hey

Your answer would be Radioactive Decay and Heat of formation.

When earth first formed it was very violant. Some planetary scientists believe that the moon was created from a collision involving earth and Thea (a theoretical dwarf planet). these collisions that have formed earth heated it so much that it is still hot from them.

Radioactivce decay is another major fource of internal heat for earth.

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

The nuclear energy is defined as a type of energy which liberates either by the process of nuclear fusion or nuclear fission and is mainly used to generate electricity. This energy is stored in the core of an atom (or nucleus).

It is highly effective, cost-effective and there is no emission of greenhouse gases.

But it also has some disadvantages, of which one is that it produces radioactive waste materials, which are difficult to dispose these substances and is also a very expensive method. These materials emit radiations that are harmful to the organisms. So, it is very challenging to dispose these radioactive waste materials.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).
