Radar : In this instrument radio waves of very short

wavelength are used to locate the enemy aircraft or ship. A

concave transmitter mounted on rotating platform sends
radio waves in all directions. The radiowaves on striking the
aircraft or ship are reflected back. The reflected radiowaves
are received by concave receiver, which is mounted at a
small angle with the transmitter. On receiving the radio
waves, the position of enemy air-craft can be located on a
monitor screen as a bright spot.
