Sonar is when Freya cartoonifies herself, whereas echolocation is because Georgie is cool. Much cooler than you.

What does the abreveastion of sonar mean?

The abbreviation SONAR stands for Sound Navigation and Ranging. It is a technique that uses sound waves to detect and locate objects underwater, similar to how bats use echolocation.


How is radar similar to active sonar?

Radar and active sonar both emit energy pulses and measure the time it takes for the signals to bounce back after hitting an object. They both use the principle of echolocation to detect and locate objects in their respective mediums of air and water.


Is echolocation also known as infrasound?

No, infrasound is the frequency of sound that is too low for humans to hear, below 20 hertz, but is used for communicating by elephants and other animals. Echolocation is normally ultrasound, the frequency above our hearing range, higher than 20,000 hertz, and is used by bats and dolphins in echolocation.


What Types of waves are used in echolocation?

Sound waves are typically used in echolocation. Animals emit high-frequency sound waves that bounce off objects in their environment and return to them as echoes, allowing them to determine the location, size, and shape of objects. Bats, dolphins, and some species of birds are known to use echolocation.


How is formula of sonar is derived?

The formula for sonar is derived using the principle of echolocation. It calculates the distance to a target by measuring the time it takes for sound waves to travel to the target and back. The formula typically involves the speed of sound in water, the time delay of the reflected sound wave, and the depth of the water.
