Modern naval ships use some form of Sonar to detect submarines. Additionally, some ships are equipped with Magnetic Anomaly Detectors (MAD gear) that detect a submarine's impact on the Earth's magnetic field in that area. The gear is typically carried aboard helicopters temporarily stationed on the ship.
Sound waves travel very well in water. Warships, including submarines, use passive sonar to listen for enemy ships and submarines. Passive sonar employes underwater hydrophones to listen for sounds. They can detect sounds of ships and submarines miles away. Marine mamals such as whales and dolphins detect sound in much the same way.
Yes sonar can be used at periscope depth. Surface ships also have sonar arrays on them. They are usually used to detect submarines.
Sinking ships; exploring the depths.
Sonar is used to detect other vessels or ships/submarines through a tube-like device> Andrea
To sink enemy vessels, ships or submarines.
sink allied supply ships to England
Ships try to avoid sinking, submarines sink on purpose...
they use sonar like bats do to detect objects that are in their path
They don't - all aircraft, ships, and submarines use both magnetic, gyro, radio, visual, and satellite navigation systems. Ships and submarines also use dead reckoning plots and land based navigational aids for fixes (close to shore) for navigating.
the military and navy use it for war and combat. Many submarines are made for launching missels and taking down ships and other subs.
They are mapped by sonar. The same technology they use to detect submarines from battleships / carriers.
Submarines have sonars.
