A sonar device on a ship sends ultrasound waves under the water to locate a sunken ship. It takes the ultrasound wave 0.6 seconds to travel from the device to the sunken ship and back again. How far below the surface is the sunken ship

Sagot :

The distance travelled by the wave from the device to the sunken ship and back again will be 450 m

What is wave?

A wave is a phenomenon that flows across a material medium without leaving any lasting mark. Transverse and longitudinal are the two main forms.

The distance by the wave to travel the two-sided motion is,2x

Distance = speed ×Time

[tex]\rm 2x = v \times t \\\\ x =\frac{vt}{2} \\\\ x =\frac{1500 \times 0.6}{2} \\\\ x=400 m[/tex]

Hence, the distance travelled by the wave from the device to the sunken ship and back again will be 450 m
