An ultrasonic signal sent from $SONAR$ returns to it after reflection from a rock after a lapse of $1 \, s$. If the velocity of ultrasound in water is $1600 \, m/s$,the depth of the rock in water is ..... $m$.

Assume that the displacement $(s)$ of air is proportional to the pressure difference $(\Delta p)$ created by a sound wave. Displacement $(s)$ further depends on the speed of sound $(v)$,density of air $(\rho)$,and the frequency $(f)$. If $\Delta p \approx 10 \, Pa$,$v \approx 300 \, m/s$,$\rho \approx 1 \, kg/m^3$,and $f \approx 1000 \, Hz$,then $s$ will be of the order of (take multiplicative constant to be $1$).

$A$ car is moving with a speed of $72 \,km/h$ towards a hill. The car blows its horn at a distance of $1800 \,m$ from the hill. If the echo is heard after $10 \,s$,the speed of sound (in $m/s$) is:

The speed of sound in oxygen $(O_2)$ at a certain temperature is $460 \,ms^{-1}$. The speed of sound in helium $(He)$ at the same temperature will be (assume both gases to be ideal): (in $\,ms^{-1}$)
