SOLVE STEP BY STEP WITHOUT ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE A ship is located in a certain region of the ocean, conducting research that requires knowledge of the sea depth at that point. To do so, it emits a signal with a wavelength of 40 m and a frequency of 30 Hz. If the signal is detected by the ship's radar 8 seconds later, what is the depth of the sea in that region?
