Dolphins of the open ocean are classified as type ii odontocetes (toothed whales). these animals use ultrasonic "clicks" with a frequency of about 55.3 khz to navigate and find prey.
(a) suppose a dolphin sends out a series of high-pitched clicks that are reflected back from the bottom of the ocean 86 m below. how much time elapses before the dolphin hears the echoes of the clicks? (the speed of sound in seawater is approximately 1530 m/s.)
answer in seconds
(b) what is the wavelength of 55.3 khz sound in the ocean?
answer in mm

The membrane surrounding a living cell consists of an inner and an outer wall that are separated by a small space. assume that the membrane acts like a parallel plate capacitor in which the effective charge density on the inner and outer walls has a magnitude of 7.0 × 10-6 c/m2. (a) what is the magnitude of the electric field within the cell membrane? (b) find the magnitude of the electric force that would be exerted on a potassium ion (k+; charge = +e) placed inside the membrane.
