Why do you use a non conducting medium for determination of velocity of ultrasonic wave?

Because different conductive media (e.g., air, water, steel, etc.) have different effects on the overall speed of the wave. In order for there to be a specific baseline measurement of the wave's velocity, it must be done in a non-conductive medium to eliminate the value of any conductive medium from the equation.

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).
What is ultrasonic velocity?
Ultrasound is sound above the range of human hearing, Sonic(20 to 20,000Hz) Human Hearing Range Sub-Sonic(20,000Hz) Ultrasonic velocity is the speed in which sound propogates in a certain material. It depends on material density & elasticity. Velocity is constant for a given material. Ultrasound is sound above the human hearing range. Sonic(20 to 20,000Hz) human hearing range, Sub-sonic(20,000Hz). Ultrasonic velocity is the speed in which sound travels through a given material. It is affected by density and elasticity. Velocity remains constant in a given material.
What are electrons flowing through a conducting medium is called?
"current"
Give the effect of density on velocity of sound?
as density of medium increase velocity of sound decreases.
Does the velocity of sound change with medium?
Of course,velocity and wave length change.But frequency is constant.
What are the properties of ultrasonic?
THE ULTRASONIC WAVES have constant velocity in homogeneous medium. Many modes of vibration. High resolution,used for flaw detection Sonic beam and highly energetic. reflection and refraction in interface.so elastic

What is the speed of ultrasonic waves in vacuum is equal to what is the speed of audible sound in air?
No, ultrasonic wave do not travel at all in a vacuum.
What is rheology of fermentation fluids?
determination of viscosity of medium.

What is the speed of the wave if the frequency of Hz and the wavelenghth of 87 m?
The velocity of a traveling wave is dependent on the composition of the conducting medium. Not directly on frequency. Though many conductive media are frequency dispersive - they conduct different frequencies at different speeds. Thus we get our rainbow. In air, sound travels about 300m/sec. But in water, about three times that velocity. And in metals, about ten times that velocity.
What will change the velocity of a periodic wave?
Changing the medium of the wave
