Explanation:
Equipotential: ΔV = 0 ⇒ W = qΔV = 0. Electric field perpendicular to equipotentials. Memory aid: 'Equipotential: no work to move charge along it'. Electrostatics concept frequently tested in competitive exams.
Explanation:
SONAR (Sound Navigation and Ranging) uses ultrasonic waves (frequency > 20 kHz) because they have high directionality, short wavelength for better resolution, and minimal absorption in water. Radio waves attenuate rapidly in water; infrasonic waves have long wavelengths unsuitable for detection; light doesn't propagate far in water. Memory tip: 'Ultra = beyond human hearing; used in SONAR/ultrasound imaging'. This application question tests knowledge of wave frequency ranges and their practical uses, common in competitive exams linking physics to technology. Always recall frequency thresholds: infrasonic 20kHz.
