Frequency Patterns when Moving Microphone from 0-90 Degrees

AI Thread Summary
As a microphone is moved from 0 to 90 degrees relative to a speaker, frequency response patterns will change, particularly for high frequencies, which are expected to decrease in amplitude due to diffraction effects. The distance from the speaker cone remains constant, allowing for a clear observation of how angle affects sound capture. Users discuss anticipated amplitude variations, emphasizing the importance of understanding these patterns for audio analysis. The conversation indicates a focus on practical applications of these frequency measurements. Overall, the discussion highlights the relationship between microphone placement and frequency detection in sound engineering.

in playing a range of frequencies through a speaker 100hz- 10khz what patterns would be found as a microphone is moved from 0degrees in front of the speaker to 90degree perpendicular to the speaker cone that cna be measured with an oscilloscope? i'd expect the high frequencies will become less detectable as the angle increases due to less defraction? the distance from the speaker cone remains the same.

Thread 'Errors and significant figures'

I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'

Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
