Write the following statements in a sequential order to find the depth of the ocean bed by the using sonar . (A) The depth of the ocean bed can be found by d = (vt)/(2) . (B) At the bottom of a ship two devices , one is transmitter which products ultrasonics and a receiver for the detection of the reflected ultrasonics from the ocean bed are fixed . (C) The velocity fo ultrasonics in ocean water is 'v' and the time taken to receive the reflected ultrasonics from the ocean bed be 'f'. (D) If the depth of ocean bed is 'd' , then v = (d + d)/(t) = (2d)/(t) .

An ultrasonic wave is sent from a ship towards the bottom of the sea. It is found that the time interval between the .transmission and reception of the wave is 1.6 seconds. What is the depth of the sea, if the velocity of sound in the seawater is 1400 ms^(-1) ?
