Question

To locate objects in their environments, bats in flight and porpoises under water both use ultrasound waves with frequencies that are beyond human hearing. These animals produce an ultrasonic wave and then detect echoes from nearby objects in order to determine the location of the object Porpoise Bat If a porpoise and a bat both produce ultrasonic waves when they are 16 meters from an object, which animal would hear its echo first? The bat would hear its echo first because sound travels faster in air than in water. O The porpoise would hear its echo first because sound travels faster in water than in air. O The bat would hear its echo first because the frequency of sound waves is greater in air than in water 0 The porpoise would hear its echo first because the frequency of sound waves is greater in water than in air.​
