t = total time taken by sound to go down the well and then come back = 2 sec

d = depth of the well

D = total distance traveled by the sound

total distance traveled by sound is given as

total distance traveled = distance traveled going down + distance traveled going up

D = d + d

D = 2 d                                                               eq-1

v = speed of sound = 343 m/s

we know that distance traveled is given as

total distance traveled = speed of sound x total time

D = v t

using eq-1

2 d = v t

2 d = (343) (2)

dividing both side by 2

d = 343 x 2/2

d = 343 m

hence surface of water is 343 m deep

What is the total amount of global evaporation ?
const2013 [10]

Water continually evaporates, condenses, and precipitates, and on a global basis, evaporation approximately equals precipitation. Because of this equality, the total amount of water vapor in the atmosphere remains approximately the same over time.

1.Record her observation with the time it was hot.
2. Gather info about the pavement and its surroundings. Find out what it's made of and what its temp. is at different times of the day.
3. Come up with a hypothesis about why it is hot.
4. Design an experiment to test the hypothesis. If she thinks the Sun is responsible (which she should b smart enough to know), keep it covered during the day time and check it's temp.
5. Come up with a conclusion. If her hypothesis is not supported, design a new experiment or gather more info.
