Answer:

The invention of sonar changed the way that the seafloor is mapped. A combined transmitter and receiver, called a transducer, sends a sound pulse straight down into the water. ... The depth of the ocean is calculated by knowing how fast sound travels in the water (approximately 1,500 meters per second).
