whale can hear ultrasonic sound waves.


Describe at least three uses of ultrasonic technology in medicine?

Medical professionals can send ultrasonic waves into a specific part of the patient's body. Reflected ultrasonic waves are used to detect and monitor conditions such as pregnancy and certain types of heart disease and cancer.


Are ultrasonic waves called as electromagnetic wave?

No ultrasonic waves are not a form of electromagnetic wave. Ultrasonic waves are nothing more than high frequency sound waves. They can be made with a suitable speaker or transducer.


What is the standard value of velocity and wavelenght of ultrasonic waves in benzene?

The standard value of velocity of ultrasonic waves in benzene liquid is 1260 m/sec.


Explain how ultrasonic waves can be produced in the laboratory?

Ultrasonic waves can be produced in the laboratory using a device called an ultrasonic transducer. The transducer converts electrical energy into mechanical vibrations, which generate the ultrasonic waves. These waves can be used for various applications, including medical imaging, cleaning, and material testing.


How can you trace ultrasonic waves?

Ultrasonic waves can be traced using ultrasonic sensors that emit the waves and then detect their reflections. These sensors send out high-frequency sound waves that bounce off objects and return to the sensor, allowing for measurement of distance, presence, or motion based on the time it takes for the waves to return. By analyzing the wave reflections, it is possible to trace the path and interactions of ultrasonic waves.


Can you see ultrasonic sound waves?

Sound waves- ultrasonic, sonic, or intrasonic are generally invisible. You cannot see sound.


Can ultrasonic wave pass through 1Cm thick iron plate?

No, ultrasonic waves will have difficulty passing through a 1cm thick iron plate due to the high density and thickness of the material. Iron is known to be a good reflector and attenuator of ultrasonic waves, making it an obstruction to their passage.


What are the different types of ultrasonic waves?

There are mainly two types of ultrasonic waves: longitudinal waves and shear waves. Longitudinal waves produce compressions and rarefactions in the medium along the direction of wave propagation, while shear waves produce perpendicular oscillations to the direction of wave propagation. Longitudinal waves are commonly used in medical imaging applications like ultrasound scans, while shear waves are used in non-destructive testing of materials to detect internal defects.


Can ultrasonic waves be polarized?

No, ultrasonic waves cannot be polarized because they are mechanical waves that propagate through a medium by vibration and compression, unlike electromagnetic waves which can be polarized due to their transverse nature.


Why ultrasonic waves are not electromagnetic waves?

No. They are mechanical waves, ultrasonic waves are sound waves and require a medium for propagation. The word ultrasonic denotes that they have a frequency above the audible range (above 20 KHz).


Can ultrasonic waves knock people out?

No, ultrasonic waves cannot knock people out. Inaudible ultrasonic waves are often used in medical imaging and cleaning processes, but they do not possess the ability to induce unconsciousness in humans.
