How is sound used to locate objects?
Echo location: You send out a directional high frequency sound. The sound bounces back in a slightly different way and at a slightly different time from different objects at different distances. You detect the differences with your Echo Locator device and that's how you can locate where objects are and how far away they are. Examples: Its how SONAR on a Navy Destroyer or Helicopter SONAR Pod detects submarines under water. Its how a fishing boats "Fish Finder" works. (A kind of SONAR) This is how BAT's fly at night or in the dark. (Very high pitched squeaks) Its how Dolphins locate prey to eat and how they detect things in murky water.
What wedsite did the founder of the echo bay technology group?
Ebay was the website that was founded by one Pierre Omidyar in 1995 under the Echo Bay Technology Group. In 2009, Echo Bay Technology Group completed the sale of Skype.
What subcategory of technology does a printing press fall under and why?
A printing press can be subcategorized as both "data storage" and communication.
A technology based on placing brief digital recordings of live sounds under the control of a synthesizer keyboard is known as?
Sampling.
How SONAR is made?
Depends on what type of sonar as in the technology used by navy to identify under sea contacts then: A sonar is a method of detection most commonly used by the navy. It works by emitting a sound into the water of which goes down and when it hits something it bounces off that object and will return to the emitter of which is timing the time between the creation of the sound and the receiving of it. This time is the easiest way of identifying the depth of the object. In there simplest form they are a speaker a microphone and a electronic timer oh and some water. 1) Release a sound into the water whilst starting the timer which is rigged to turn off when the microphone receives the sound. 2) wait for the sound to bounce off an object or the sound to hit the bottom of the object holding the water. 3) as soon as the microphone receives the sound the timer will shut down and you will know the distance of the object after you convert the time to distance.
What is a device called that bounces sound waves off under water objects?
Sonar
What uses sound waves to find things under water?
Sonar technology uses sound waves to find objects under water by sending out sound pulses and measuring the time it takes for the signals to bounce back. By analyzing the returning echoes, sonar systems can determine the distance, size, and shape of underwater objects.
What technology did scientists use in the mid 1900's to map the mid-ocean ridge?
they probably would use a sonar which is a device that bounces sound waves off under water objects and then records the echoes of these sound waves. =]
Can sonar be used out of water?
Sonar technology relies on sound waves traveling through a medium, such as water, to detect objects. Sonar cannot be effectively used out of water because air does not transmit sound waves in the same way as water does, resulting in distorted or ineffective results.
What is the sound made by steam called?
The sound made by steam is called hissing. It is a high-pitched noise caused by steam escaping under pressure.
How do dolphins hunt or gather it's food?
They use what is called echo location to hunt down food. By making clicking sounds they can bounce the sound waves off of objects under the water thus hunting down prey and killing it
What is the thing that a judge hits his gavel on called?
The wooden pad under a gavel is called the "Sound Block" or the "Base" of the gavel.
How does the microscope work?
A microscope works by magnetizing objects with the glass inside the lens. This lense will show you the small objects you put in containers called slides under the microscope's lens.
What is used to locate objects under water by the reflection of sound waves?
Sonar, which stands for Sound Navigation and Ranging, is used to locate objects underwater by sending and receiving sound waves. The device measures the time it takes for the sound waves to bounce off an object and return to the source, allowing for the calculation of the object's distance and direction. Sonar is commonly used in various applications such as navigation, fishing, and oceanographic research.
How does sonar technology help scientists monitor the hydrosphere?
Sonar technology uses sound waves to map the seabed, measure water depth, and detect underwater objects. Scientists use sonar to study the characteristics of the hydrosphere, such as ocean floor topography, marine life distribution, and water currents. This data helps monitor changes in the hydrosphere over time and understand its dynamic processes.
Can sound destroy things?
Yes, sound can potentially cause damage to objects under certain conditions. This phenomenon is known as acoustic resonance, where sound waves match the natural frequency of an object, causing it to vibrate and possibly break. However, this usually requires specific frequencies and high intensity sound levels.
What is The study of the motion of objects and the related concepts of force and energy form the field is called?
The study of the motion of objects, as well as the concepts of force and energy, falls under the field of physics. Physics aims to understand how objects move and interact with each other through the principles of force and energy.
