← ScienceWhich consequence occurs when a submarine's acoustic shielding degrades?
A)Increased reflection of sonar frequencies
B)Enhanced submarine maneuverability decreases
C)Cavitation noise becomes easily audible✓
D)Doppler shifting alters targeting precision
💡 Explanation
Degraded shielding in submarines causes increased acoustic transmission because **acoustic impedance mismatch** limits the materials capacity to decouple internal sound; therefore, internal machinery noises such as cavitation escape easily rather than being contained within the hull.
