Answer: depth = 3.75 m

Explanation:

Taken the speed of the sound in sea to be V = 1500 m/s

The time between an echo sounder sending and receiving a pulse is 0.005 s. That is,

Total time T = 0.005

Formula for echo is:

V = 2X/T

Where X = distance covered

Substitute V and T into the formula

1500 = 2X/0.005

Cross multiply

7.5 = 2X

Make X the subject of formula

X = 7.5/2

X = 3.75 m

Therefore, the depth of the sea is 3.75 m

What's the Coulomb's law?
Ulleksa [173]

<span>
In layman's term: </span>like charges don't attract while opposite charges do<span>electrostatic forces between point A( which is charged) and point B (which is also charged) are proportional to the charge of point A and point B. </span><span>there is also something else about this  law that I don't quite remember.</span>

<span>___________________________________________________</span>

<span />Here is the formula:

<span>F = k x Q1 x Q2/d^<span>2</span></span>

<span>What the formula means:</span>

F=force between charges

Q1 and Q2= amount of charge

d=distance between these two charges

k= Coulombs constant (proportionally constant)

As a solid element melts, the atoms become __________ and they have __________ attraction for one another. more separated, more
galina1969 [7]
The complete statement is 

As a solid element melts, the atoms become more separated and they have less attraction for one another. 

Let me explain to you how this happens. In solid phase. Its molecules are arranged in a very compact manner that is why it takes a definite shape and volume. When it is heated, the kinetic energy of the molecules increases. This is characterized by more frequent collisions. The rise in temperature causes the molecules to move rapidly by vibrating. When it reaches an amount of energy that causes the solid to change phase, this is called the latent energy. The molecules break their form and move farther away from each other until it resembles that of a liquid melting. At this point, the molecules would have lesser attraction because of the distance between them.

A grandfather clock has a pendulum that consists of a thin brass disk of radius r = 13.62 cm and mass 1.199 kg that is attached
Feliz [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

Expression for time period of a pendulum is as follows

T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }

l is length of pendulum from centre of bob and g is acceleration due to gravity

Given

Time period T = 1.583

g = 9.846

Substituting the values

1.583 = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{9.846} }

l = \frac{(1.583)^2\times9.846}{4\times(\frac{22}{7})^2 }

l = .6244 m

= 62.44 cm

Length of rod  = length of pendulum - radius of bob

= 62.44 - 13.62

= 48.82 cm

= .488 m
