The sound emitted by sonar travels from the surface of the sea to the bottom of the sea, and then returns to the sea for 3 seconds. What is the depth of the sea?

Solution: Time for sound to travel from the sea surface to the seabed:

t=

12

×3s= 1.5s,

The depth of the sea floor here:

s = vt = 1.5s× 1500m/s = 2250m,

A: The depth of the seabed here is 2250 meters.
