$A$ $SONAR$ (sound navigation and ranging) uses ultrasonic waves to detect and locate objects under water. In a submarine equipped with a $SONAR$,the time delay between generation of a probe wave and the reception of its echo after reflection from an enemy submarine is found to be $77.0\; s$. What is the distance of the enemy submarine (in $; km$)? (Speed of sound in water $= 1450\; m/s$)

  • A
    $68.5$
  • B
    $75.4$
  • C
    $55.8$
  • D
    $26.4$
