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.
Which is longer-wavelength of infrasound or ultrasound?
Infrasound has a longer wavelength.
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 is a similarity between infrasound and ultrasound?
"Sound" is a mechanical wave traveling through a medium. Ultrasound is sound, but its frequency is higher than humans can hear.
Is infrasound used to clean glassware?
No, but you can use ultrasound to clean glassware.
What is the opposite of the ultrasound?
The opposite of ultrasound (above the human hearing range) is infrasound (below the human hearing range).
How acoustics is related to physics?
Acoustics is the study of sound, ultrasound and infrasound, that is, waves in gases, liquids, and solids.
How ultrasound and infrasound differ from normal sound?
Sonic infrasound is a sound too low for humans to hear, below 20 Hertz. Ultrasound is a sound too high for humans to hear, above 20,000 Hertz.
What is different between infrasound and ultrasound?
Infrasound is sound that is lower in frequency than 20 Hz (Hertz) or cycles per second, the normal limit of human hearing. Ultrasonic waves have frequencies above the audible range at around 20 kHz. Audible sound is within human hearing range.
What is the difference between ultraviolet radiation and ultrasound?
The difference between ultraviolet radiation and ultrasound is how they react when inside the body. Ultraviolet radiation attacks the cells and destroys cells that are harmful to the body. Ultrasound is merely a viewing device. Ultrasound is used to detect abnormalities in the body.
What is the difference between ultrasound and shock waves Eg a shockwave does damage to say a kidney stone but you can ultrasound the kidney without damaging it?
Ultrasound.
Which is longerthe wavelength of infrasound or the wavelength of ultrasound?
I beg your pardon? Sound is not a person, let alone a living being. >:-(
