Based on the velocity of sound in water,  the depth of the water is 5550 m.

<h3>What is the depth of the water if a transmitted sound pulse returns  an echo 7.4 seconds later?</h3>

The velocity of sound in water =  1500 m/s

Time taken to receive the echo = 7.4 seconds

  • Distance travelled by sound = speed * time

Distance = 1500 * 7.4

Distance = 11100 m

Since this is a to and fro distance covered

  • Depth of the water = distance travelled/ 2

Depth of water = 11100/2

Depth of water = 5550 m

Therefore, the depth of the water is 5550 m.

El conductor de un coche de 650 kg que va a 90 km/h frena y reduce su
Ivanshal [37]
A. 90km/h = 25 m/s
W=1/2mv^2
=1/2* 650* 25^2
= 203125(J)
b. v’= 90-50= 40km/h
= 100/9 m/s
W=1/2mv^2
=1/2*650*(100/9)^2
= 40123,45679

We can study how galaxies evolve because ______.A) Galaxies are transparent to visible light.B) We are really smart astronomers.
saul85 [17]

We can study how galaxies evolve because the farther away we look, the further back in time we see.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

As the galaxies are located far away from us and also as per the broad band theory, these galaxies are spreading as the time goes. So as time passes, the galaxies are moving further light years away.

So depending upon the time taken for the light waves to reach Earth from these galaxies will state the time they have evolved. So the farther or more lately the light reaches the earth surface, the further time back we can see its evolution. Thus option d is correct choice.
