A SONAR (sound navigation and ranging)uses ultrasonic waves to detect and locate objects under water. In asubmarine equipped with a SONAR the time delay between generation ofa probe wave and the reception of its echo after reflection from anenemy submarine is found to be 77.0 s. What is the distance of theenemy submarine? (Speed of sound in water = 1450 m s–1).
