Submarines use sonar (Sound Navigation and Ranging) to navigate and detect objects underwater by emitting sound waves and analyzing the echoes that bounce back. Active sonar sends out sound pulses and listens for their return, helping to identify the distance and shape of underwater features or other vessels. Passive sonar, on the other hand, listens for sounds made by other objects, such as ships or marine life, allowing submarines to navigate stealthily. This reliance on sound is crucial in the underwater environment, where visibility is limited.

Do dolphins and bats speak the same language?
They both use Sonar to navigate and guide where they are going. Sonar uses sound waves that bounce off of objects and are reflected back at the animal. Submarines also use Sonar.
What is the use of sonar?
SOund Navigation And Ranging = SONAR Sound is used underwater to bounce off objects. The reflections back can be measured (by electronics) to find our where they are and how far away. Used by submarines, to navigate round obstacles underwater and detect other vessels.
How do submarines target underwater objects?
They use Sonar to send sound waves to the bottom of the oceans.
Are pink dolphins and submarines the same because they use the same sonar?
Though they both use SONAR (SOund Navigation And Ranging) to navigate, submarines and marine mammals that use sonar are both very different in how they use it.Marine mammal sonar uses a much higher frequency than submarine active sonar systems transmit at. Also, submarines rarely use active sonar due to the fact it immediately gives away your location and range to an enemy. Marine mammals use their active sonar constantly to navigate through the water, communicate, and to find food, while passive sonar is the primary means of submarine navigation.Dolphin sonar sounds like a fast clicking sound, with occasional high frequency "squeals", similar to a dog toy, though at a much higher frequency range. The frequency is high enough that it must be demodulated by special equipment to a lower frequency to really hear it. Usually when submarines go to periscope depth, dolphins set off the torpedo warning alarms since their frequency is at a similar range. As a former Submarine Sonarman, I can also say that it also drives you nuts, especially when there's a whole group of them around the boat.
What do bats and submarines have in common?
submarines and bats both use sonar. Calvin was here
Can you give an example of SONAR?
Sure! An example of SONAR (Sound Navigation and Ranging) is its use in the military to detect submarines by sending out sound waves and listening for their echoes. This technology helps navies locate and track underwater targets using sound waves.
How sumbarines use ultrasound?
Submarines use the ultra sound in sonar in order to find any hurdles in their path as visibility is very less under water.
Do dolphins use vibration to speak?
Yes, dolphins use sound, which is a kind of vibration, to speak, and also to navigate by means of sonar.
What things use sonar to see?
Some animals like bats and dolphins use sonar to see by emitting sound waves that bounce off objects and return to them, allowing them to "see" their surroundings. Submarines and ships also use sonar technology for navigation and detecting underwater objects.
How is sonar similar to vocal?
Exactly the same. Sonar is Sound. We use the word sonar to indicate what use that the sound is put to- not to differentiate it from sound its self.
Why is water a good medium for communication between dolphins?
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.
Can sonar use in periscope depth?
Yes sonar can be used at periscope depth. Surface ships also have sonar arrays on them. They are usually used to detect submarines.
