Detailed Solution

Ultrasonic waves are used in SONAR.
SONAR is a device, which is used by submarines, ships, or motorboats to detect the physical nature of underwater objects. For this, we require sound waves which can be able to penetrate water to longer distances. To satisfy this, the wave must possess a higher frequency and very short wavelength, the ultrasonic waves have these properties which help us to be used in SONAR.
