Which of the following principles is being used in $SONAR$ technology?

Assume that the displacement $(s)$ of air is proportional to the pressure difference $(\Delta p)$ created by a sound wave. Displacement $(s)$ further depends on the speed of sound $(v)$,density of air $(\rho)$,and the frequency $(f)$. If $\Delta p \approx 10 \, Pa$,$v \approx 300 \, m/s$,$\rho \approx 1 \, kg/m^3$,and $f \approx 1000 \, Hz$,then $s$ will be of the order of (take multiplicative constant to be $1$).

The temperature at which the speed of sound in air becomes double of its value at $27^\circ C$ is ... $^\circ C$

The speed of a longitudinal wave in a metallic bar is $400 \ m/s$. If the density and Young's modulus of the bar material are increased by $0.5\%$ and $1\%$ respectively, then the speed of the wave is changed approximately to . . . . . . $m/s$.
