ultraääniaallossa
Ultrasonic waves, or "ultraääniaallossa" in Finnish, are mechanical waves with frequencies exceeding the upper limit of human hearing (approximately 20 kilohertz). They belong to the broader category of sound waves but operate at higher frequencies, typically ranging from 20 kHz to several megahertz in common applications. The speed of ultrasonic waves depends on the medium they travel through—for example, they propagate faster in liquids and solids than in air, and cannot travel in a vacuum.
Physically, ultrasonic waves exhibit properties such as reflection, refraction, and diffraction, similar to other waves. These
Technological advancements have expanded the use of ultrasonic waves, with ongoing research exploring their potential in
