Dolphins of the open ocean are classified as Type II Odontocetes (toothed whales). These animals use ultrasonic "clicks" with a frequency of about 55 kHz to navigate and find prey. You may want to review. Suppose a dolphin sends out a series of clicks that are reflected back from the bottom of the ocean 55 m below.
a) How much time elapses before the dolphin hears the echoes of the clicks? (The speed of sound in seawater is approximately 1530 m/s.)
b) What is the wavelength of 55 kHz sound in the ocean?

Which of the following is an example of units for speed

Aperson standing in a canoe exerts a force of 700 n to throw an anchor over the side. find the acceleration of the canoe if the total mass of the canoe and the person is 100 kg?

Visualize the problem and identify special cases first examine the problem by drawing a picture and visualizing the motion. apply newton's 2nd law, ∑f⃗ =ma⃗ , to each body in your mind. don't worry about which quantities are given. think about the forces on each body: how are these consistent with the direction of the acceleration for that body? can you think of any special cases that you can solve quickly now and use to test your understanding later? one special case in this problem is if m2=0, in which case block 1 would simply fall freely under the acceleration of gravity: a⃗ 1=−gj^.
