Answer:

1200m

Explanation:

Let the depth of sea be x.

Given that the sound has to travel to the bottom of the sea and get reflected back to the ship itself, thus total distance traveled by the sound is 2x.

Time taken to hear an echo t=1.6 s

Therefore, 2x = vt

Hence, we have 2x =1500m/s × 1.6s

=> 2x = 2400

⟹ x = 2400 ÷ 2

= 1200m

Hence, the final answer is 1200m

Art [367]

The correct answer is: a feedback mechanism.

The bionic pancreas is bio-engineered device used for the regulation of blood sugar levels in order to maintain body homeostasis. The bionic pancreas includes a sensor that monitors blood sugar levels and sends a signal to a separate device that will then release the appropriate hormone into the bloodstream to return blood sugar levels back to normal. This device is very functional because of its ability to dose insulin and glucagon based on continuous sugar blood measurements.
