What property of a wave is illustrated by sonar?

Sonar illustrates the property of the wave known as reflection. The sonar device sends out sound waves that bounce off underwater objects and return to the receiver, allowing it to map the ocean floor or detect objects underwater.


What type of wave is sonar?

Sonar uses sound waves to detect objects underwater. It is a type of acoustic wave that travels through the water and reflects off objects, allowing for the measurement and mapping of underwater environments.


What were the two different types of sonar?

The two types of sonar are active and passive.Active sonar uses a transmitter, a device that converts electrical energy to sound energy, to send out sound waves. The sound waves travel through the water until they strike an object. The object reflects them in various directions. Some of the reflected waves return to the sonar, where they strike a receiver. Sonar determines distances by measuring the time taken for a sound wave to travel from the transmitter, reflect from the object, and travel to the receiver.Passive sonar receives sound waves given off by some other source, but does not transmit sounds. Passive sonar can therefore determine the direction of an object, but is not as effective as active sonar in determining its distance.Hope I cleared your doubt!- Harman Kahlon


Can a sonar ping kill you?

No, a sonar ping cannot kill you. It is a sound wave used for navigation and detecting objects underwater, but it is not powerful enough to cause harm to humans.


Hich of these wave components determine a wave's energy?

The amplitude of a wave is the factor that determines a wave's energy. Amplitude is the measure of the height of the wave, which correlates with the energy the wave carries. Waves with larger amplitudes have more energy.

What is the source of energy for sonar?

Sonar uses electricity, so the source of energy is either a generator or a battery.

Why does lower sound help long distance sonar?

The rate at which wave energy is dissipated in a damped medium is proportional to the frequency squared. That is, lower frequencies lose less of their energy to the medium they're propagating through, so their range is longer.

What is the relationship between the energy of a wave and its frequency in the wave equation?

In the wave equation, the energy of a wave is directly proportional to its frequency. This means that as the frequency of a wave increases, so does its energy.


Which wave carry energy?

Any wave carries energy.
