AI Thread Summary
To calculate acoustic impedance (z), use the formula z = p * c, where p is the density and c is the speed of sound. Given that the speed of sound is 330 m/s and the density is 1.3 kg/m³, multiply these two values to find z. The calculation results in an acoustic impedance of 0.00043 kg/m²s, which can be expressed as 0.00043 x 10. Understanding this formula is essential for solving related problems in acoustics.

what do i do to p and c to get z when

z=pc

please help i know its prob dumb but i am so stuck.
 
Mathematics news on Phys.org
what is z, p, and c
 
acoustic impedance z
density p
speed of sound c

the speed of sound is 330 ms-1
density is 1.3 kg m-3
i need to know what to do with density and spped of sound to get acoustic impendance i know the answer is 0.00043 kg m -2 s-1 x10 but i do not know how to work out the formula?
 
z=pc means z=p times c.
 
thankyou
 
Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In Dirac’s Principles of Quantum Mechanics published in 1930 he introduced a “convenient notation” he referred to as a “delta function” which he treated as a continuum analog to the discrete Kronecker delta. The Kronecker delta is simply the indexed components of the identity operator in matrix algebra Source: https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/what-exactly-is-diracs-delta-function/ by...
Suppose ,instead of the usual x,y coordinate system with an I basis vector along the x -axis and a corresponding j basis vector along the y-axis we instead have a different pair of basis vectors ,call them e and f along their respective axes. I have seen that this is an important subject in maths My question is what physical applications does such a model apply to? I am asking here because I have devoted quite a lot of time in the past to understanding convectors and the dual...
