  2. Acoustic resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_resonance

    The resonance properties of a cylinder may be understood by considering the behavior of a sound wave in air. Sound travels as a longitudinal compression wave, causing air molecules to move back and forth along the direction of travel. Within a tube, a standing wave is formed, whose wavelength depends on the length of the tube.

    add some glue (e.g. a layer of glue is often added on the top of television coils ; over the years, this glue degrades and the sound level increases) change the shape of the coil (e.g. change coil shape to a figure eight rather than a traditional coil shape) isolate the coil from the rest of the device to minimize structure-borne noise

  4. Wave interference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_interference

    The resultant wave may have greater intensity (constructive interference) or lower amplitude (destructive interference) if the two waves are in phase or out of phase, respectively. Interference effects can be observed with all types of waves, for example, light , radio , acoustic , surface water waves , gravity waves , or matter waves as well ...

  5. Acoustic resonance spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_resonance...

    Acoustic resonance spectroscopy (ARS) is a method of spectroscopy in the acoustic region, primarily the sonic and ultrasonic regions. ARS is typically much more rapid than HPLC and NIR . It is non destructive and requires no sample preparation as the sampling waveguide can simply be pushed into a sample powder/liquid or in contact with a solid ...

  6. Beat (acoustics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beat_(acoustics)

    In acoustics, a beat is an interference pattern between two sounds of slightly different frequencies, perceived as a periodic variation in volume whose rate is the difference of the two frequencies. With tuning instruments that can produce sustained tones, beats can be readily recognized.

  7. Helmholtz resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helmholtz_resonance

    Helmholtz resonance sometimes occurs when a slightly open single car window makes a very loud sound, also called side window buffeting or wind throb. [7] Because cars have a large volume, the frequency of the wind throb is quite low. [8] Helmholtz resonance finds application in internal combustion engines (see Airbox), subwoofers and acoustics.

  8. Node (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Node_(physics)

    They occur when waves are reflected at a boundary, such as sound waves reflected from a wall or electromagnetic waves reflected from the end of a transmission line, and particularly when waves are confined in a resonator at resonance, bouncing back and forth between two boundaries, such as in an organ pipe or guitar string.

  9. Acoustic paramagnetic resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Acoustic_paramagnetic_resonance

    In acoustics, acoustic paramagnetic resonance (APR) is a phenomenon of resonant absorption of sound by a system of magnetic particles placed in an external magnetic field.It occurs when the energy of the sound wave quantum becomes equal to the splitting of the energy levels of the particles, the splitting being induced by the magnetic field.
