What else can I help you with?
Can sonar work in air?
NO. We call that radar.
What instrument is used to image objects underwater?
Robotic submersibles, sonar, satellites, coring machines, and magnetometers.
Why is reflection of signal useful?
Reflection of a transmitted signal is the basic premise of radar and sonar.
What did the military use sonar's for?
Sonars were used to detect any objects that got into the detection field of the sonar. By this, the military could detect enemy submarines etc., which they couldn't see normally because of the opacity and/or darkness of the water.
Where is sonar used?
Naval operations: Submarine and anti-submarine usage. in the thirties a Blimp altimeter called a Sonicaltimeter was tested on Navy Blimps by Admiral Rosenthal, noted (Blimp admiral). The device was made in Germany by Echolot- still in business. Echolot is a blend word of Echo Location or Echo-Pilot. not a Batty idea but uses in a sense ultra-sound not radar waves.
How are sonar and radar different?
Sonar uses sound waves to detect objects underwater, while radar uses radio waves to detect objects in the air or on the ground. Sonar is typically used in marine environments, while radar is commonly used in aviation and meteorology.
What are the differences between radar and sonar in terms of their applications and capabilities?
Radar and sonar are both used for detecting objects, but they operate in different mediums. Radar uses radio waves to detect objects in the air or on the ground, while sonar uses sound waves to detect objects underwater. Radar is better for long-range detection and tracking of objects in the air, while sonar is better for underwater navigation and detecting objects beneath the surface of the water.
What do bats have sonar or radar?
Sonar
Do bats have sonar or radar?
Sonar
What are radar and sonar acronyms?
RADAR - Radio Detection and Ranging SONAR - Sound Navigation and Ranging
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.
Antonym for sonar?
Sonar is a method of sound based ranging. Therefore as an object it is not subject to an antonym. There is the principal of radar which can also range, but it uses radio waves instead.
What do sonar and radar have to do with light waves?
Sonar and radar are both used for detecting objects and determining their distance by sending out waves and measuring the time it takes for the waves to bounce back. While radar uses radio waves, which are a form of electromagnetic radiation with longer wavelengths, sonar uses sound waves, which are mechanical vibrations that require a medium to travel through. Both techniques operate on the principle of wave reflection to gather information about the surrounding environment.
What rhymes with radar?
Sonar, Lidar.
Can sonar work in air?
NO. We call that radar.
Do you locate planes with sonar?
no, radar is used
What does the terms SONAR stand for?
sOUND NAVIGATION AND RANGING
