How does an ultrasonic cleaner clean?
Ultrasonic cleaners use high frequency sound waves and cleaning chemistry (an aqueous or organic medium) to act on contaminants on the material needing to be cleaned, so that the contaminants can be removed. ADDED They work by a combination of the detergent, and cavitation induced by the sound.
How fast are ultrasonic sound waves?
Ultrasonic sound waves travel at the same speed as lower frequency sound waves. The medium determines the speed at which a sound wave, which is mechanical energy, can travel. Sound waves travel faster in liquids than in a gas (like air), and travel faster still in solids. The speed at which a sound wave travels is generally independent of the frequency of that sound. Use the link below for more information.
Ultrasonic cleaners use the vibrations of sound waves to shake dirt away from object?
Not exactly. Ultrasonic cleaners use ultrasound to produce a phenomenon known as cavitation. The ultrasonic wave fronts produce microscopic vacuum bubbles that are forced against, and collapse upon the surface being cleaned. When these bubbles collapse, water and cleaning solution is shot into the space they once occupied, thus creating a cleaning action.
Why a bat can't use infrasonic sound wave instead of ultrasonic sound wave?
Basically, a wave will hardly be affected by objects that are smaller than the wavelength. That means that shorter wavelengths are more appropriate for detecting objects.
What is 1 use of ultrasonic sound?
1 use is the looking of fetuses while is in the womb. Also, using the correct velocities, it can be used to measure material thicknesses, and find faults in materials such as steel welds
How do jewelers use ultrasonic sound?
Ultrasonic cleaners are excellent for cleaning jewelry and most gems.
Can you put the word ultrasonic in a sentence?
for my science fair project i had to use scientific method
Which type kf sound wave is used by bats and whales in echolocation?
They use ultrasonic. The sound they use to locate objects that may be invisible.
How would people travel at the speed of sound?
We can use ultrasonic planes. They can travel with that speed.
Use ultrasonic in a sentence?
The F-86 Canadair Saber is breaking the sound barrier at supersonic speed.
How does an ultrasonic cleaner clean?

What are some industrial applications of ulrasonics?
One use - is in the medical field. Ultrasonic 'baths' are used to deep-clean medical devices, optics and dental products during manufacture.
How does a journalist use science in their work?
they use sound waves

Which kinds of sound waves can be produced by bats?
Bats produce high frequency (also known as ultrasonic) sound waves, which they use as a type of sonar, to locate insects in the air.
Can you hear the ultrasound waves that a bat uses for echolocation?
Bats use their vocal tract to make ultrasonic sound the same way we use our vocal tract to make audible sound. They use these for a form of SONAR navigation allowing them to "see" in total darkness. Also many insect eating bats can focus their ultrasonic sound to use it to stun their prey.
How do you use an ultrasonic cleaner in dental clinic?
Dentists use ultrasonic cleaners to clean their dental instruments.
