Applied Physics I: Chapter 5: Oscillations and Waves - Ultrasonics

Ultrasonics: Introduction

Each and every creature in this world produces sound. For example, the rustling of leaves in trees, movement of insects, breath from human beings etc. produces sound due to vibration of particles in air.

INTRODUCTION

 

Each and every creature in this world produces sound. For example, the rustling of leaves in trees, movement of insects, breath from human beings etc. produces sound due to vibration of particles in air. Among these sounds. some are Audible and some are Inaudible.

Apart from the sound waves that can be heard by human ear [Between 20 Hertz to 20,000 Hertz] there are sound waves of frequencies less than 20 Hertz called infrasonics and sound waves greater than 20,000 Hertz called ultrasonics.

The ultrasonic waves are called high frequency waves and are inaudible to human ear. The ultrasonics has many engineering and medical applications, which are based on the principle that "sound waves are reflected at the boundary (or) adjoining media of the two surfaces that have different acoustical parameters.
