Ultrasound Flashcards
Owl Sound frequencies
Ultrasound waves have a frequency higher than the upper limit for human hearing above of 200,000 Hz different species of an animal have different hair ranges. This explains why dog can hear ultrasound produced by a dog whistle but human cannot
Uses of ultrasound
Freaking kidney stones cleaning jewelry baby scanning detecting cracks in machinery
How you see ultrasound take a picture
Some of the ultrasound waves are affected at the boundary time taking for the waves to leave a source and return to detector is measured the depth of a boundary can determine using the speed of sound in the material and time taken
Speed of ultrasound under the test is 1200 m/s
D equals V times T
Frequency of sound waves
High frequency sound waves of high pitched
Low frequency sound waves are pitched
Amplitude of sound waves
High amplitude soundwaves are are loud
Low amplitude sandwich are quiet
