Which consequence results when a submarine's sonar transducer exceeds maximum power?

A)Increased signal propagation scattering loss
B)Increased ambient noise cancellation
C)Decreased hydrophone array sensitivity
D)Decreased Doppler shift resolution

💡 Explanation

Exceeding power leads to cavitation; microbubbles form. Acoustic cavitation increases signal propagation scattering loss because the oscillating bubbles disrupt wave propagation through scattering, therefore signal strength falls faster and range is reduced, rather than other resolution factors.
