  2. Electromagnetically induced acoustic noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetically...

    When the capacitor voltage/current waveform is not constant and contains time harmonics, some harmonic electric forces appear and acoustic noise can be generated. [13] Ferroelectric capacitors also exhibit a piezoelectric effect that can be source of audible noise. This phenomenon is known as the "singing capacitor" effect. [14]

  3. Electret microphone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electret_microphone

    The output audio signal is received though a DC blocking capacitor. An electret microphone is a microphone whose diaphragm forms a capacitor (historically-termed a condenser) that incorporates an electret. The electret's permanent electric dipole provides a constant charge Q on the capacitor.

  4. Ceiling fan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceiling_fan

    Building codes throughout the United States prohibit residential ceiling fans from being mounted with the blades closer than seven feet from the floor; [22] this sometimes proves, however, to not be high enough. If a ceiling fan is turned on and a person fully extends his or her arms into the air, as sometimes happens during normal tasks such ...

  5. Microphone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microphone

    Although for scientific applications microphones with a more uniform response are desirable, this is often not the case for music recording, as the non-uniform response of a microphone can produce a desirable coloration of the sound. There is an international standard for microphone specifications, [62] but few manufacturers adhere to it. As a ...

  6. Motor capacitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_capacitor

    A typical motor start capacitor. A motor capacitor [1] [2] is an electrical capacitor that alters the current to one or more windings of a single-phase alternating-current induction motor to create a rotating magnetic field. [citation needed] There are two common types of motor capacitors, start capacitor and run capacitor (including a dual run ...

  7. Sound stage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_stage

    An empty sound stage with infinity cyclorama and an overhead light grid.. A sound stage (also written soundstage) is a large, soundproof structure, building or room with large doors and high ceilings, used for the production of theatrical film-making and television productions, usually located on a secured movie or television studio property.

  8. Loudspeaker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudspeaker

    The term loudspeaker may refer to individual transducers (also known as drivers) or to complete speaker systems consisting of an enclosure and one or more drivers.. To adequately and accurately reproduce a wide range of frequencies with even coverage, most loudspeaker systems employ more than one driver, particularly for higher sound pressure level (SPL) or maximum accuracy.

  9. Capacitance Electronic Disc - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitance_Electronic_Disc

    This varying capacitance in turn alters the frequency of a resonant circuit, producing an FM electrical signal, which is then decoded into video and audio signals by the player's electronics. The capacitive stylus pickup system which gives the CED its name can be contrasted with the technology of the conventional phonograph. Whereas the ...
