Calculate the depth to the ocean floor in meters for the


Use the following data to calculate the depth to the ocean floor in meters for the three locations given.

Sonar signal received .21 seconds after transmission

Sonar signal received 11.9 seconds after transmission

Sonar signal received 7.0 seconds after transmission

T = Time for signal to travel from the transmitter to the receiver (in seconds)
V = velocity or speed of sound as it travels through the ocean water
V = 1500 m/sec
D = Depth to ocean floor.

2D = T*V
