Description

Speed of Sound in Seawater

The speed of sound in seawater, approximately 1521.6 m/s at 20°C and 10 meters depth, is faster than in pure water due to increased salinity and pressure. This speed plays a crucial role in oceanographic studies, naval sonar systems, and undersea communications, providing accurate depth and distance measurements.

Understanding Meter per Second (m/s)

The meter per second (m/s) is the SI unit of velocity, representing the distance traveled in meters within one second. It's widely used in scientific and engineering contexts to quantify speed and direction of motion. For instance, a car moving at 20 m/s covers 20 meters every second. This unit is fundamental in physics, especially in kinematics, where it helps describe linear motion.
