When the sound wave returns to the machine, you can measure
how long it took to return. 

(You may notice that it's working just like RADAR, which does the
same thing with radio waves instead of sound waves.)

Even if you know how long the sound took to get to the bottom and
return to the top, you can't DO anything with this information if you
don't know the SPEED of the sound through the water.  Not only
the inventory of this machine, but anyone who uses it, has to know
the speed of the sound through water in order to use the round-trip
time to calculate the depth.

In a circuit, energy is transferred to a charge.<br> Where is this energy transferred from?
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Electric current.

Explanation:

The energy result from electric current resulting from potential differences between terminals which form an Electric circuit. This energy could come from different sources like chemical, wind, light

An electric circuit is one where there is movement of electrons;this electrons acquire charge which is energy. The electrons flow due to a potential difference; you have heard water flows from a higher position to a lower one freely. The highest height is said to be at higher potential and the lower point low potential.

So it's the same with electrons.

The formular for energy on charge is Q= I × t where I is electric current and t is time.

Calculate the acceleration of a 90-kg skydiver with a net force of -883 N
Helen [10]
F=ma, in this case your force=-883 N and mass = 90 kg. F/m=a therefore acceleration=-883/90=-9.81 m/s/s
