Echolocation is also called bio sonar. It is the sonar used by several kinds of animals that <span>enables them to locate and discriminate objects by projecting high-frequency sound waves and listening for echoes as the sound waves reflect off objects. </span>
Dolphins and whales make these sounds at any time and at considerable depths. Sounds vary in volume, wavelength, frequency, and pattern.
The wavelength depends on the speed of propagation (c).wavelength=c/f The speed of sound in water is c= 1450 m/s. 
So, for bottlenose delphins the wavelength is:1450m/s /  110.5 kHz
1450 m/s /  110500 Hz =0.013 m = 0.13 mm
For whales  the waveleng42.5 th is:1450m/s /  42.5 kHz = 
1450m/s /  42500 Hz= 0.034 m = 0.34 mm
