Dolphins rely on echolocation to be able to survive in the ocean. In a 20 °C ocean, a dolphin produces an ultrasonic sound with

a frequency of 125 kHz. What is the wavelength of this sound, in meters?While remaining stationary, the dolphin emits a sound pulse and receives an echo after 0.220 s. How far away, in meters, is the reflecting object from the dolphin?

Answer:

wavelength =  0.01 m

distance = 162.8 m

Explanation:

Given that;

Speed of sound in water = 1,480 meters per second

Frequency of ultrasound = 125KHZ

From=

v=λf

v= speed of sound

λ= wavelength of sound

f= frequency of sound

λ= 1,480 ms-1/125 * 10^3 Hz

λ= 0.01 m

From

v = 2x/t

where;

v= velocity of sound in water

x= distance traveled

t = time taken

x = vt/2

x = 1,480 ms-1 *  0.220 s/2

x= 162.8 m

What is friction and explain
Veseljchak [2.6K]
Friction is the force you get when you (for example) Rub something with another, it's a force that may generate heat and even some resistance. Another example is rubbing your hands together, they get hot, therefore friction is working, without friction you wouldn't be able to stop moving.

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

There are so many planets out there that there must be habitable planets if not in our galaxy but the Universe.

Although the chances of advanced life are slim, small primitive life like microbes or sea life may still exist.
