Sonar is the science of sending out sound waves to an object and waiting for them to be bounced back to a receptor.
Scientists can use this by shooting out the sound waves, then counting the amount of time it takes for the wave to shoot back to the receptor, and calculating the speed of the wave in proportion to the amount of distance traveled to get an idea of how large an object is.
They would need to do so on all sides of it, of course, and it probably helps that they have lots of equipment to help measure.

The system of using sound to measure distance is called what?
Sonar.
How do Measure the CFM of Fan and what equipment need to measure the CFM?
Call a Test and Balance Agency.
What equipment do you use to measure the capacity of an eggcup?
millilitres or centilitres or litres
What is the name of the piece of equipment that yo use to measure mass?
manometer
How do you use sonar in a sentence?
Scuba Divers use a Sonar to find treasure or a hidden ship.
What does sonar measure?
Sonar is measured in sound

What is electrical depth sounding equipment called?
Sonar.
What are the practical uses for Cakewalk Sonar equipment?
Cakewalk Sonar equipment is used by musicians for recording and editing digital audio. You can purchase Cakewalk software online from retailers such as Amazon.
How do you measure the depth of a undersea wreck?
With sonar
Will using sonar kill you?
No, using sonar will not kill you. Sonar is a technology that uses sound waves to detect objects underwater and is commonly used in various applications such as navigation and fishing. It is safe for humans to use sonar equipment.
What do scientists use to measure ocean depth?
SONAR
What is used to map seafloor topography?
Bathymetric maps are used to map seafloor topography. These maps are created using specialized sonar equipment to measure the depth of the ocean floor. The data collected is then used to generate detailed images and models of the underwater terrain.
The system of using sound to measure distance is called what?
Sonar.
Does sonar uses sound waves to measure water depth?
Yes. Active sonar generates a pulse, the echo is heard some time later. The time it takes for sound to travel from the generator to the reflector and back to the sensor discloses the distance from the sonar equipment to the object reflecting the sound waves. Passive sonar just listens and does not generate any sound pulses itself but through various analysis algorithms certain information about the distance to an object that does make sound can be obtained. Passive sonar is not used for finding the depth of water but for listening to ships.
What technique uses sound waves to measure the depth of the ocean floor?
Sonar.
Which type of device emits a sound wave to measure to the ocean floor?
SONAR
