    The sonar system consists of a transmitter that converts electrical impulses into sound waves, a transducer that sends the sound waves into water and receives echo signals, a receiver that amplifies the echo signals, and a display that shows the results. It works by sending sound waves into the water, measuring the time it takes for the echo to return from striking an object, and using the speed of sound in water to calculate the distance to the object.

    SONAR SYSTEM

    The word sonar is an abbreviation for SOund, NAvigation, and Ranging. A sonar system consists of a transmitter, transducer, receiver, and display. In the simplest terms, an electrical impulse from a transmitter is converted into a sound wave by the transducer and sent into the water. When this wave strikes an object, it rebounds. This echo strikes the transducer, which converts it back into an electric signal. This signalisthen amplified by the receiver and sent to the display. Since the speed of sound in water is constant in a given locale at a given time (approximately 4800 feet per second), the time lapse between the transmitted signal and the received echo can be 4/22/12 measured and the distance to the object determined.
