What are sonar rays?
Sonar is a method of detecting underwater objects with sound pulses-like radar but with sound not microwaves
What Types of waves are used in echolocation?
As the name suggests, sonar uses sonic waves (sound). Typically, sonars use sounds with frequencies inaudible to human ear.Another answer:Actually, sonar uses a wide range of frequencies. Very low frequencies (100 Hz to 1 kHz) are used for long range detection and deep sea floor sounding. Midrange frequences (1 kHz to 10 kHz) are used for target identification. Ultrasonic frequencies (50 kHz and up) are used in navigation and commercial sonar devices like fish finders.
How is a ball dropping to the floor and bouncing back up like an echo?
Sound waves, like physical objects, can "bounce" (if they are not absorbed by soft surfaces). The same way a ball hits the floor and uses the energy of impact to rebound, sound waves can hit the walls of a cave or empty room and return in roughly the same direction they came from.
What does it look like when a sound wave hits an object?
It bounes back where it came from
What sound does yellow makes'?
Tissssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss Like the sound your pee makes when it hits the toilet. Or a happy joyful soothing song.

How do bats create sounds?
Bats create sound based on location, like sonar. when they travel they emit sonar like waves to identify objects. Echolocation
How did scientists first discover an underwater system of mountains and valleys on the sea floor?
Im not sure but I think it was sonar (Sound Waves). Like I said im not 100% on this but im preety sure.
What is the importance of sound for bats?
Echolocation they send out a sound and via echolocation (like sonar) they determine their position and the location of their prey
What is Sonar Mapping?
Sonar mapping uses sound waves to map out the contours or the shape of the ocean bottom. Sonar is an acronym for Sound Navigation Ranging. Typically, a pulse of sound is generated using a kind of underwater loudspeaker towed behind a boat. The pulse of sound, or "ping," spreads out through the water and is reflected back again by objects in the water, such as the ocean bottom, a fish, or a submarine. Underwater microphones measure the reflected sound. The time that it takes the echo to return is roughly proportional to the distance to the reflecting object. Like an echo in the air. Measuring the distance to a single object is relatively easy because it returns a simple echo. Making a map of the ocean floor is much more difficult because sound reflects back from many directions, from hills and valleys in the ocean floor. Complicated mathematics is needed to calculate a map of the ocean bottom.
Animals that sound like a wooden floor?
your head bangin on the floor

How is sonar and echolocation alike?
An echo is like a sonar because they both reflct the sound they cause. The sonar is useful to the navy army to find out where the lost ships are located, so basically they are navigating the exact location of ships and sumbarines. An echo as you can see can be most used when screaming in the gym or an enormous place with no one in there. I hope this helped you.
What is ultrasound?
Ultrasound is sound which has a frequency higher than that of audible sound.( like radar )ADDED: Not like radar. That uses radio waves, although sonar and radar principles are similar.
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.
Sonar con agua?
to sound with water? . It looks like it been taken out of context, sentence structure is very important in spanish.
What are some technological applications of sound waves?
Sonar (or Sound Navigation and Ranging) is a type of technology that was designed to help with navigation, communication and locate objects underwater. Sonar projects sound waves then listens for the echo of the emitted sound waves to detect objects.
