Depending on the speed and whether the Leaf is accelerating or decelerating, the sound system will make sweeping, high-low sounds.
Magnetostriction causes energy loss due to frictional heating in susceptible ferromagnetic cores, and is also responsible for the low-pitched humming sound that can be heard coming from transformers, where alternating currents produce a changing magnetic field. [2]

The torsional deflection of a simple cylinder cannot radiate efficiently acoustic noise, but with particular boundary conditions the stator can radiate acoustic noise under torque ripple excitation. [8] Structure-borne noise can also be generated by torque ripple when rotor shaft line vibrations propagate to the frame [9] and shaft line.
With a potential government shutdown looming ahead of the holidays, here's what you need to know if mail services will be impacted by it.
