Microwaves would be a great way to communicate with submarines, but they'd have to surface to use that method of connecting. Surfacing would defeat the purpose of having the submarine out there, and could easily expose it to detection. We do use radio to communicate with submarines, but not microwaves. Microwave energy has a very limited ability to penetrate water. Very low frequencies can penetrate water to a certain extent, though. And that's why we don't bother with microwaves for submarine communication.
What else can I help you with?
Which of the following is true of microwaves?
microwaves are used in radar
Who used the submarines?
During WW2, all the major countries involved used submarines.
What property of microwaves makes them good for communicating?
Microwaves have a short wavelength, allowing them to carry a large amount of data with high accuracy. They can easily penetrate the atmosphere and are less affected by weather conditions compared to lower frequency signals.
How were sonar systems used in World War 2?
They were used by submarines to navigate when not in open waters, They were also used by submarines and anti-submarine ships to locate enemy submarines.
How are submarines used today?
Submarines todaee are used for underwater exploration,funn,new life underwater.
How are submarines used for pleasure?
Shallow diving submarines are used for reef watching in many parts of the world.
What energy is used today to power submarines?
Nuclear energy is used to power most modern submarines
How are microwaves helpful in your lives?
Microwaves can be used to send signals or to cook food.
Is communicating with sattilites is an application of gamma rays?
No. Satellite communication is done with radio waves (and sometimes microwaves). Same stuff that communicates with your cell phone.
Were submarines used in World War 1 And if there were what were the weapons used by the controller of it?
submarines were used in WW1 and the weapons used were torpedos and a deck gun.
Which side used submarines in the civil war?
Both the Union and the Confederate had submarines, but the Confederate used them more often.
Why is mercury used in microwaves?
Mercury is not used in microwaves. Microwaves use magnetrons to generate microwave radiation, which heats food by causing water molecules to vibrate. Mercury is a toxic element and is not safe for use in consumer products like microwaves.
