Merchants do not notice torpedo tracks, and you can test this if you want in one of the single missions (or in a throwaway career).

They can notice you, however, so raise your scope only to make quick observations, do the solution, and fire. Don't keep it up to watch the kerplosion.

Warships, however, can notice torpedo tracks, and their reaction alerts the merchants, too.
