Explanation:

Speed

It's the rate of change of the distance (d) traveled by an object over time (t).

The speed can be calculated by the formula:

It's known the speed of sound in water is v=1500 m/s. A sound wave is sent to the sea bed and bounces back to the ship 1.5 seconds later.

That is the time the wave takes to travel twice the distance from the ship to the sea bed, thus the required distance uses half of that time or t=1.5/2 = 0.75 seconds.

Solving the equation for d:

d = v.t

d = 1500 m/s * 0.75 s

d = 1125 m

The sea bed is 1125 m deep.

explanation:

r=rho l/a where a is the area, l is the length and rho is resistivity so the greater the area the lesser the resistance thats why the earth pin is thicker bcos current follow the shortest path, so less resistive .
