How does the information gathered by ships using sea beam sonar differ from the collected with standard methods that use one sonar device?
A sonar uses one device and a sea beam uses a dozen sonar devices.

A sonar uses one device and a sea beam uses a dozen sonar devices.
How did shipbuilders travel?
Using ships.
What did the military use sonar's for?
Sonars were used to detect any objects that got into the detection field of the sonar. By this, the military could detect enemy submarines etc., which they couldn't see normally because of the opacity and/or darkness of the water.
Can you give me a sentence using the word sonar?
Sonar is an acronym.
How does sonar work using sound energy?
Sonar works by emitting sound waves from a transducer into the water. These sound waves travel through the water until they encounter an object, at which point they bounce back to the sonar device. By measuring the time it takes for the sound waves to return, the sonar device can calculate the distance to the object.
How did people travel west during 1840?
They used to travel by trains,bicycles and on foot on land and by ships.
What is a sub spotter called?
A sub spotter is typically called a Submarine Sonar Technician or Sonar Operator. Their role is to detect and locate enemy submarines using sonar technology.
What have people specifically found with sonar?
Sonar is a way of finding things underwater, using the echo of sounds you emit. We have used it to find the shape of the lake/sea/ocean bottoms, to determine the depth of waters, to find fish, to locate ship wrecks, and to detect the presence of ships and especially submarines.
Can dolphins hear other dolphins from far away?
Because some sounds travel very well through water.
What two pieces of information are needed to map the ocean depth using sonar?
To map ocean depth using sonar, two key pieces of information needed are the time it takes for the sound waves to travel from the sonar device to the seafloor and back (ping time), and the speed of sound in water at different depths. By calculating the distance based on ping time and speed of sound, the ocean depth can be accurately mapped.
What is the formula for calculating depth when using sonar?
The formula for calculating depth using sonar is depth = (velocity of sound in water x time taken for sound wave to return) / 2. This formula takes into account the speed of sound in water and the time it takes for the sound wave to travel to the bottom and back to the receiver.
