Energy production. Energy In physics, energy is the quantitative property that must be transferred to an object in order to perform work on, or to heat, the object. Energy is a conserved quantity; the law of conservation of energy states that energy can be converted in form, but not created or destroyed. The SI unit of energy is the joule, which is the energy transferred to an object by the work of moving it a distance of 1 metre against a force of 1 newton. Common forms of energy include the kinetic energy of a moving object, the potential energy stored
Scientific echosounder vegetation and algae - with the appropriate software. Hardware Software Scientific echosounder A scientific echosounder is a device which uses sonar technology for the measurement of underwater physical and biological components—this device is also known as "scientific sonar". Applications include bathymetry, substrate classification, studies of aquatic vegetation, fish, and plankton, and differentation of water masses. Scientific echosounder equipment is built to exacting standards and tested to be stable and reliable in the transmission and receiving of sound energy under the water. Recent advances have led to the development of the digital scientific echosounder, further enhancing the reliability and precision with
