Chapter 12, Problem 2P

To determine

The deep of the ocean

Answer to Problem 2P

Solution:

Deep of the ocean $s=1.5km$

Explanation of Solution

Given:

$t=2.0s$

$v=1560m/s$

$\text{Displacement}\text{=}\text{average velocity}\text{×}\text{time}$

$s=vt$

$t=$ Half the total time

$=$$2/2=1.0s$

$v=1560m/s$

$s=1.0\times 1560$

$s=1560m$
