What is the distance of the object from the ship

Reference no: EM13488594

A ship on the surface of the ocean receives a sonar echo back from an underwater object. The echo path from the object to the ship is at an angle of 22 degrees above the horizontal and takes 2.5s to return. (Velocity of sound in sea water = 1500m/s).

a) What is the distance of the object from the ship?

b) What is the depth of the object in the sea?
