An automatic focus camera is able to focus on objects by use of an ultrasonic sound wave. The camera sends out sound waves that reflect off distant objects and return to the camera. A sensor detects the time it takes for the waves to return and then determines the distance an object is from the camera. If a sound wave returns to the camera 0.150 seconds after leaving the camera, how far away is the object? (take speed of sound = 330 m/s) |

A sound producing body is at considerable distance from a man. There can be four different media W, X, Y and Z between the sound producing body and the man. The medium X brings the sound to man most quickly whereas medium Z takes the maximum time. The time taken by medium W in bringing sound to man is less than that of X but more than that of Z. The medium Y, however, fails to bring the sound from the sound producing body to the man. Which medium could be the one : (a) having a fixed shape and no fixed volume ? (b) having a fixed volume but no fixed volume ? (c) having the same composition as that on the moon ? (d) having a fixed shape and a fixed volume ? |
