Curtin University researchers have developed a new technique to make glass water-repellent, a feature that could improve ...

The sounds cause the surface of the water to oscillate and create desired wave patterns. A particular sound’s amplitude, phase, and frequency can be adjusted using a laptop computer, so that ...

Music for your cells . The new research builds on a 2018 study by Kumeta and his team that found that sound waves can influence genes involved in bone formation and wound healing. “To ...

Yet water doesn’t mute sound, but amplifies it. Sound waves travel 4.3 times faster underwater than they do in the air and they retain their energy for much longer.

Researchers at ETH Zurich have managed to make sound waves travel only in one direction. In the future, this method could also be used in technical applications with electromagnetic waves. Water ...

NASA astronaut [Don Pettit] shared a short video from an experiment he performed on the ISS back in 2012, demonstrating the effects of sound waves on water in space. Specifically, seeing what happe… ...

The sound waves essentially created microscopic bubbles in the salt solution. Then, when the bubbles collapsed, they created tiny bursts of heat and pressure which triggered a reaction with the glass.

It’s because space doesn’t carry sound in the way we experience it on Earth. There is no air or water to carry pressure waves that create audible sound. But that does not mean the universe is ...

By varying the amplitude and phase of the sound waves, the researchers were able to vary the wavefronts that reached the ball. These waves then interact with the medium and cause the ball to move.
