Can you make a sound inaudible by another sound with the same frequency?

The same frequency and the same amplitude but inverse. This would be a tricky accomplishment, not sure if it can be done perfectly but I'm sure it can be done partially. To visualize this, you can throw rocks in a pond and watch the ripples and imagine two ripples the same size and frequency but of opposite polarity (that is, the peak of one ripple hits the trough of the other ripple such that they cancel each other out). If you have a method of doing this perfectly, please let me know (we could get very rich ;-) TommyTrouble

How is frequency made?
To make sound frequency change alter the pitch.
Can sound energy effect a solid?
Yes. All solids have a frequency, and when contacted by a sound of the same frequency, it causes the vibration of molecules in the solid. That is why singers can make a glass break vith their voice.
A loud explosion will produce?
It depends on the explosion a Nuclear bombs make a very high sound Frequency
What does the amplitude look like for a soft sound?
Amplitude is how loud it is. So a soft sound would have a small amplitude. Frequency is the pitch of the sound. High sounds have high frequency. Wavelength is the type of sound. Music wavelengths are in harmony. Changing the wavelength gives us the different words etc that we make.
What is another name for acoustical energy?
Acoustical energy is only the vibrations that make sound, so sound is another name.
What prefix goes in front of audible?
Audible doesn't have a prefix. You could add the prefix in- to it to make the word inaudible.
How is frequency made?
To make sound frequency change alter the pitch.
What is frequency compensation?
Frequency compensation is a technique used in amplifiers. It basically controls the sound of the amplifier to make it sound clear and free of positive feedback.
In a stringed instrument the sound frequency of a particular string can be increased by?
Tightening the string will make its' frequency higher.
What sound does a longitudinal wave make?
It depends on the wavelength and frequency of the wave.
What make some sound louder than other?
the frequency, probably
What makes change?
To make sound frequency change alter the pitch.
What is pitch or frenqency?
pitch and frequency is a type of sound, that helps it make it louder.
Does a falling star make a sound and is it possible to hear it as it burns out?
You know, I bet meteorites DO make sounds (inaudible to the unaided ear), and I wonder if we could learn something interesting about them or about the atmosphere by attempting to listen in. I like this question.
How loud does a sound have to be to make a avalanche?
The volume of the sound isn't as important as the frequency of the sound. The avalanche is caused by a specific frequency creating a harmonic resonance in the mountain which in turns causes a large mass of snow to slide off the mountain.
Can sound energy effect a solid?
Yes. All solids have a frequency, and when contacted by a sound of the same frequency, it causes the vibration of molecules in the solid. That is why singers can make a glass break vith their voice.
Which uses high-frequency sound waves to make an image of a developing fetus?
ultrasound
