What medical device uses echoes of high-frequency sound waves to produce images?
an ultrasound
What is Vibration of Sound?
Sound -is- vibration. A 'body' totally motionless makes no noise. it is only the movement of the air - which is either moving due to the wind, or because something is passing on vibrations to it, that creates sound. Our hearing can detect the rhythm of a vibrating substance and we interpret that as sound. Some sounds are beyond our range - either above or below the frequency we can detect.
How does sound affect frequency?
The definition of sound is : "Vibrations that travel through the air or another medium and can be heard when they reach a person's or animal's ear." Sound can be measured by amplitude (loudness) and pitch (The frequency of the vibrations). Therefore sound does not affect frequency but frequency affects the pitch of the sound.
What is the name of the high frequency sound waves in an imaging process that is used to diagnose patient illness?
Ultrasound. Diagnostic ultrasound is the use of high-frequency sound waves to image anatomic structures and to detect the cause of illness and disease. Ultrasound moves at different speeds through the body's tissue, depending on the density of the tissue.
Does the speed of sound independent of frequency?
It is independent of frequency.
When a source of sound approaches you what do you detect an increase in?
frequency
How do you report infra sound home invasion's being cause by satellite frequency?
I'm trying to report a infra sound home invasion and an v chip implanted and c ant get my message
What is the difference between infra sound and ultrasound?
Infrasound has a frequency below normal hearing. Ultrasound waves have a frequency above the normal range of human hearing.
What is receiver capsule?
receiver capsule is a telephone device who can detect sound wave
What is the difference between infrasound and ultrasound And provide one example of how each is used?
Infrasound is always smaller or lighter than ultrasound. For example: infrasound can be the sound of a paper clip hitting the floor, and ultrasound can be the sound of two planets colliding.
What are sound waves classified as?
Infra sonic, ultra sonic and sonic waves of sound Infra sonic has frequecy less than 20 Hz Ultra sonic has frequency more than 20,000 Hz Sonic waves having frequency range 20 - 20000 Hz
What medical device uses echoes of high-frequency sound waves to produce images?
an ultrasound
How do vibration change the pitch of sound?
The sensation of a frequency is commonly referred to as the pitch of a sound. A high pitch sound corresponds to a high frequency sound wave and a low pitch sound corresponds to a low frequency sound wave.The ability of humans to perceive pitch is associated with the frequency of the sound wave that impinges upon the ear. Because sound waves traveling through air are longitudinal waves that produce high- and low-pressure disturbances of the particles of the air at a given frequency, the ear has an ability to detect such frequencies and associate them with the pitch of the sound.

Our hearing can detect the rhythm of a vibrating substance and we interpret that as sound. Some sounds are beyond our range - either above or below the frequency we can detect.
What are the Sources of infrasonic sound?
Infrasonic sound below the range of human hearing at 20 cycles per second, can include severe weather, surf, avalanches, earthquakes, volcanoes, waterfalls, calving of icebergs, meteors, and thunder. You can often 'feel' infrasound, especially in your chest.
What species can detect subsonic sounds?
Cuse of the manner in which sound (and, in particular, low frequency sound) is propagated unnder water, whalies, dolphins and the like as well as fieesh will be able to detect them, though it may not be "heering" as we no it. and eliphants and lions
How would you detect a soundwave?
The human ear can detect sound waves, but it has limited range and sensitivity. Some might chose to use a microphone and an associated electronics package to detect sound. Sound that is too soft to be detected or at too high or low a frequency to be heard might be looked at on a screen where the sound picked up by the microphone is amplified and converted to a picture that is displayed to provide a visual representation of the sound.
