Wed, 02 November 2005 06:10 so you are saying that tweeters are not directional Quote: Also to produce a high frequencies, you need to move things very fast, and to do that, things need light and therefore small that is correct and the main reason why tweeter use less energy than subs, because of their size. Quote: They are directional cause they don't have enough energy to move/compress the large amounts of air no they dont compress large amounts of air because they are low amplitude waves. you have lost me as to how this has anything to do with their directionality. Quote: this is not the purpose of the orignal statement,it was to prove what has more engergy, Low or high frequencies agreed. so would you care to comment on this [QUOTE]Higher frequencies tend to be more 'directional' than lower frequencies. Higher frequencies have a higher average power for any given section of the wave, than lower frequency waves. This doesn't mean they are 'louder' or have a higher peak amplitude... it just means they have higher power. Follow me along this thought experiment. I'll assume you are familiar with the 'wave' in a stadium, whereby a line of people stand up and sit down in succession. Imagine these people, instead of getting up and down, are getting up and down on a step. The speed that the wave goes around the stadium is dependent on how fast each individual person gets up, since the next person in line has to wait for the previous person to move. Now, let's say on two different days, you have two different waves. To make a wave with higher frequency, that is, to make a wave that goes up down more times in one second, you need the people to stand up and down very fast. They would use a lot of energy to do it. If you wanted the wave to move slower, you would tell them to take their time getting up. They wouldn't spend much energy at all. The amplitude, or the height of the wave, is going to be determined by how high the step is... the power of the wave is how much energy the people have to expend to get up and down it a number of times in one minute or second, etc. So. Low frequencies, because of the big distance between the peaks and troughs of the wave... tend to go 'around' objects that are in their way. That is, the wave can maintain it's shape and still bend. High frequencies are narrow, because of their higher power, and very tightly packed. They have the tendency to 'bounce' off of objects in their way. Foghorns have a very high amplitude, and a very very low frequency. That way they won't be blocked by ships or rocks in the water. It ALSO means that they tend to 'bend' along the curvature of the Earth. from www.physlink.com [\QUOTE] or this Quote: say you have a 6" speaker and you are going to play it at a fixed amplitude (stroke), to play a very low frequency wave of say 100 hz the cone moves back and forth 100 times per second now to play a high frequency sound say 10,000 hz the cone moves back and forth 10,000 times. so the cone travels 100 times as far to produce the HIGH frequency sound. please explain how this uses less energy than the low frequency?
