How is a sonar used in finding the depth of the sea-bed?

What is the name of the device which is used to find the depth of sea (or ocean) by using ultrasonic sound waves?

A SONAR (sound navigation and ranging) uses ultrasonic waves to detect and locate object under water. In a submarine equaipped with as SONAR, the time delay between genration of a probe wave and the recption of its echo after refection from an enemy submarine is found to be 77.0 s. What is the distance of the enemy submarine ? (speed of sound in water = 1450 ms^(-1)

A point source of sound is located inside sea water. Bulk modulus of sea water is B_(omega)=2.0 xx 10^(9) N//m^(2) . A diver located at a distance of 10 m from the source registers a pressure amplitude of DeltaP_(0)=3000 pi N//m^(2) and gives the equation of sound wave as y=A sin (15 pi x-21000 pit) , y and x are in meter and t is in second. (a) Find the displacement amplitude of the sound wave at the location of the diver. (b) Find the power of the sound source.

Write the full name of SONAR. How will you determine the depth of a sea using echo ranging ?
