I'm reading a book on microphones and came across the following:
and then it goes off talking about something else...
I feel stupid for asking this, but I don't get how the above equation works? For one, I thought cross products could only be be involving vectors? Aren't all the terms above scalars? Should I treat it as a dot product?
Any help in understanding the above, so I can see how the terms affect each other is greatly appreciated!
The relation between air particle velocity (u) and particle displacement (x) is given by:
[itex]u(t) = j\omega \times x(t)[/itex]
where [itex] \omega = 2\pi f[/itex] and [itex] x(t) [/itex] is the maximum particle displacement value.
and then it goes off talking about something else...
