•10 * Underwater illusion. One clue used by your brain to determine Wavefronts the direction of a source of sound is ! the time delay At between the arrival of the sound at the ear closer to the | d source and the arrival at the farther ear. Assume that the source is distant D so that a wavefront from it is approx- imately planar when it reaches you, and let D represent the separation between your ears. (a) If the source is located at angle 6 in front of you (Fig. 17-31), what is At in terms of D and the speed of sound v in air? (b) If you are submerged in water and the sound source is di- rectly to your right, what is At in terms of D and the speed of sound V, in water? (c) Based on the time-delay clue, your brain interprets the submerged sound to arrive at an angle 0 from the forward direc- tion. Evaluate 0for fresh water at 20°C. Figure 17-31 Problem 10.
