SONAR was developed during World War II, to find submarines. Submarines were sneaking up on ships underwater and releasing torpedoes to blow up the ship.
Is that an example of science affects technology

As long as you describe the chemical reactions within the torpedo and explain how torpedoes advanced modern warfare.

Explanation:

the modern torpedo is a self-propelled weapon with an explosive warhead, launched above or below the water surface, propelled underwater towards a target, and designed to detonate either on contact with its target or in proximity to it.  and even in the early 2000s we still use them .All American submarines carry the MK 48 ADCAP torpedo. The Los Angeles and Virginia class submarines are designed to carry around 25 torpedoes and have 4 torpedo tubes to shoot them, while the Seawolf class, a Cold War behemoth with 8 torpedo tubes, can carry up to 50 torpedoes.
