What is sonar technology based on?
sound waves
What is sonar and how it uses the theory of plate tectonics?
sonar uses the theory of plate tectonics because it makes sound waves and the sound waves con hear them
Why is it not possible to use sonar to determine the speed of an object travelling faster than the speed of sound?
Sonar is sound waves bounced off a object so if you are going the speed of sound the waves cannot bounce off the object and determine the speed of the object
How do dolphins hear underwater?
they use SONAR. :)
What instrument do we use to detect sound waves?
Sonar
How do sonar devices send out sound waves?

Could fisherman use sonar?
Many species of sharks do not use sonar, as they have very effective senses, but some species are thought to. The hammerhead shark, in particular, is thought to use sonar waves detection.
Do vampire bats have sonar?
No. SONAR (SOund Navigation And Ranging) is an acronym for a human technology that used for underwater navigation. Bats have the ability that may be similar to SONAR, but they do not use a machine and do not use it under water. They use their ultra sensitive hearing and brain processing to "see" in the dark with sound waves, sort of like how we see with light waves.
How does sonar detect underwater objects?
Sonar is when you send sound waves out. They bounce off of objects, letting people know there is an object there. Dolphins and bats, among other animals, use sonar.
How do you use sound energy?
Sound waves are used as ultra sound for medical investigations, Sonar waves for underwater investigations and depths..
How do submarines target underwater objects?
They use Sonar to send sound waves to the bottom of the oceans.
Why electromagnetic waves cannot be used in SONAR?
EM waves cannot be used in SONAR because water is a conducting medium and thus EM waves would get shorted
What are the sound waves sent to the ocean floor called?
Sonar waves.
How did sonar change society?
Your fathers mustache is now responsive to the waves SONAR detects.
