A ship transmits ultrasonic signal waves to detect an iceberg floating at a distance of 3.6 km. The waves strike the iceberg, are reflected back, and are detected by the detector installed in the ship. The speed of ultrasonic waves is 1470 m s?1.What is the time delay between the transmission and the reception of the ultrasonic waves?

Dear student,Speed=distancetime1470=2×3.6×1000timetime=2×3.6×10001470=4.89sRegards
