What is the type of wave released from a tv remote control?
Usually infra red, but I have seen some that use ultrasound.
Is an ultrasound wave mechanical vibrating energy?
ultrasound wave is a wave due to mechanical vibration,
Explain how bat uses ultrasound to find its prey?
Bats, as one may know, are blind, and to find it's prey (food) it causes ultrasound, which is invisible of course, imagine a wave, in the ocean, the waves hit something, and the wave is directed back to where it came from, and anything the wave does not hit, continues. That is how bats use ultrasound to hunt.
What is the ulrasound?
sorry for the spelling mistake. here it is. Ultrasound is a type of sound wave that has a frequency of over 20,000 so it is nearly impossible for a human to hear it. Bats use it to communicate and to see as they have bad eyesight. They use their echo ultrasound to reflect sound so they know if something is in front of them. Humans use ultrasound to see living cells in the body like when a woman is pregnant they it to scan and measure the baby's heart rate. Mice also hear ultrasound and people use special equipment that use ultrasound to scare the mice and other insects away.
Why is ultrasound useful?
ULTRASOUND produce STSTIONERY wave while pass through LIGUID
How can Ultrasound be used to measure the Depth of Sea Water?
an ultrasound wave is beamed down from a boat and then the wave bounces back from the seabed to a reciever. the longer the wave takes, the deeper the water.
Is ultrasound a transverse or longitudinal wave?
Sound, at least in gases like air, can only propagate as a longitudinal wave.
Can for ultrasound wave travel long distance in air?
no
What is ultrasound refrigeration?
Ultrasound or thermoacoustic refrigeration uses a resonating sound wave to induce a thermal gradient.
Uses ultrasound wave that reflect off of boundaries?
sonar
What type of Electromagnetic wave does an excimer laser use?
The electromagnetic wave used here is Ultraviolet wave...
Is an ultrasound wave a mechanical wave or an elastic wave or both?
An ultrasound wave (or any other sound wave) is mechanical energy, and can be said to be a mechanical wave. Waves are not elastic. The term elastic may be applied to the medium through which they travel. There are compression and shear forces (among others) that work on the medium, and the medium may present a more or less elastic response.
