A dolphin emits a sound wave that hits a target 120 m away. The wave reflects back from the target to the dolphin. If the Bulk modulus of seawater is 2.3 x 10° N/m2 and the density of seawater is 1022 kg/m3. How long does it take the sound wave for the round trip?

The time taken for the sound wave to make the round trip is 0.16 s.

Explanation:

Given;

distance traveled by the sound wave, d = 120 m

bulk modulus of sea water, B = 2.3 x 10⁹ N/m²

density of sea water, ρ = 1022 kg

The speed of the wave is given by;

Speed is given by;

total distance of the round trip = 2 x 120m = 240 m

Time taken for the sound wave to make the round trip is given by;

Therefore, the time taken for the sound wave to make the round trip is 0.16 s.

b.

explanation:

momentum of soft ball three times less than baskey ball
