Question 1

What formula is used to calculate the velocity of radar waves in a medium?

  • v = c/ϵr
  • v = ϵr × c
  • v = c + ϵr

💡 Hint: Think about how the dielectric affects speed.

Question 2

True or False: The one-way travel time is always half of the two-way travel time.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Remember the definition of two-way travel time.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A GPR measures a two-way travel time of 200 ns with a dielectric constant of 9 in a wet soil medium. Calculate the depth to the object.

💡 Hint: Don't forget to convert time from ns to seconds before calculating.

Question 2

If a material's dielectric constant increases, how might this affect the GPR depth accuracy? Explain your reasoning.

💡 Hint: Consider the fundamental relationship of dielectric constant to speed.
