  2. Acoustic levitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_levitation

    Acoustic levitation is a method for suspending matter in air against gravity using acoustic radiation pressure from high intensity sound waves. [1] [2]It works on the same principles as acoustic tweezers by harnessing acoustic radiation forces.

  3. Speed of sound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_of_sound

    Pressure-pulse or compression-type wave (longitudinal wave) confined to a plane.This is the only type of sound wave that travels in fluids (gases and liquids). A pressure-type wave may also travel in solids, along with other types of waves (transverse waves, see below).

    60 bpm, common tempo in music 2 Hz: 120 bpm, common tempo in music ~7.83 Hz: Fundamental frequency of the Schumann resonances: 10 1: 10 hertz 10 Hz: Cyclic rate of a typical automobile engine at idle (equivalent to 600 rpm) 12 Hz: Acoustic – the lowest possible frequency that a human can hear [3] 18 Hz: Average house cat's purr 24 Hz

  5. Speedcore - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speedcore

    The term speedcore in reference to high tempo hardcore/gabber can be traced as far back as 1995. [7] [8] Disciples Of Annihilation coined the name of the genre with their track "NYC Speedcore". [4] Belgian artist DJ Einrich refined the sound in the late 1990s, using oscillators to transform fast kick drums into notes in octaves. [5]

  6. 3D audio effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_audio_effect

    3-D audio (processing) is the spatial domain convolution of sound waves using head-related transfer functions. It is the phenomenon of transforming sound waves (using head-related transfer function or HRTF filters and cross talk cancellation techniques) to mimic natural sounds waves, which emanate from a point in a 3-D space.

  7. In Waves (song) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_Waves_(song)

    "In Waves" is the first single from American heavy metal band Trivium's fifth studio album by the same name. This song was released on May 21, 2011. [ 1 ] It is the first single to feature drummer Nick Augusto , [ 2 ] and it has a different sound than Trivium's previous singles. [ 3 ]

  8. Audio time stretching and pitch scaling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_time_stretching_and...

    One can view the same transposition as "frequency scaling", "scaling" (multiplying) the frequency of every note by 3/2. Musical transposition preserves the ratios of the harmonic frequencies that determine the sound's timbre , unlike the frequency shift performed by amplitude modulation , which adds a fixed frequency offset to the frequency of ...

  9. 100 Foot Wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/100_Foot_Wave

    Professional big wave surfer Garrett McNamara begins "tow surfing," using jet skis to be able to get on taller and taller waves. After McNamara is filmed riding the barrel of a 20-foot wave at Hawaii's famous Jaws surf site, the video gets shared around the world and a resident of Nazaré Portugal reaches out to Garrett to try to get him interested in the mammoth waves that crash onto Nazaré ...
