      @jeremydavis3631 4 роки тому +169

      Hm... The waves would interfere with each other, which I imagine would reduce their effectiveness at heating the egg as compared to just summing their individual heat outputs. It might be barely possible with a single really loud ultrasonic speaker placed right next to the egg, but it seems unlikely. Or maybe multiple speakers with care taken to ensure they're all in phase with each other so the waves interfere constructively at the egg.
      It sounds like an amusing experiment, even if it gets no results. :)

    You know how they always do a pun in the last line, right? This time it was an auditory one because I am pretty sure it was intentional that "the right ear" in the last sentence mostly came from the right side of my headset. Wouldn't have noticed it without it. That is so next level.

    @falahati 4 роки тому

    Instead of describing it as the speed in which you can hear it, you could have explained it easier by the "penetration potential". A low-frequency wave is better at penetrating and traveling through a medium (in this case, the air). This is why you can bang your hand on the table and it makes a loud sound but not speak through it as efficiently. High-frequency wave, however, tends to reflect easier instead of penetrating the medium.

Also, THAT mythical Corona-5G; some of it's frequencies are even blocked (attenuated) by a tree's leaves …down to a level, where even the latest super-sensitive tech can't tell bits from cosmic chirps.

    Same concept is with humans. Last year I've stumbled on a article that presented research about different groups lived long enough in specific type of areas and developed, according to that location, higher or lower voice pitch. People that lived in woodlands developed lower so voices could be heard from afar even when obstacles was in the way (trees), and highlanders have higher pitch so voices could travel far enough because there is no obstacles when you shout from one peak to another.
