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

Answer:

1946 ft

Explanation:

The distance is the addition of the distance gotten from both triangles.

d = x + y

d = 1178 ft + 768 ft

d = 1946 ft

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
To have a weight of 2.21N., the ball's mass is (2.21/9.8) = .226kg. 
<span>a) d = 1/2 (vt), = 1/2 (18 x .17), = 1.53m. </span>
<span>b) Acceleration of the ball = (v/t), = 18/.17, = 105.88m/sec^2. </span>
<span>f = (ma), = .226 x 105.88, = 23.92N. </span>

We know that every object exerts an attraction on every other object and the heavier the object ___ the attraction.
hichkok12 [17]
I don't know what the exact word is, but I do know that the bigger an objects mass is the more it will attract other objects toward it, mainly smaller objects with less mass. it might be gravity or something around those lines....is it a multiple choice question?
