B. multibeam sonar because it sends one signal at a time
Multibeam sonar is commonly used for creating high-resolution sea floor maps as it can capture a wide swath of the seafloor with detailed accuracy. This technology sends multiple narrow beams of soundwaves simultaneously, allowing for efficient and detailed mapping of the sea floor.

A. multibeam sonar because it is a classified technology
B. multibeam sonar because it sends one signal at a time
