Body Boundary Interaction Internal Structures

Click For Summary

Boundary interactions refer to the changes in sound waves as they encounter different materials or structures, crucial in echolocation and medical imaging. In echolocation, animals use these interactions to determine the location and distance of objects by analyzing the returning sound waves. Similarly, in medical imaging, boundary interactions help in visualizing internal body structures by interpreting the echoes produced when sound waves hit different tissues. Understanding these principles enhances the effectiveness of both natural and technological echolocation methods. The exploration of boundary interactions is essential for advancements in both biological and medical fields.

Thread 'Bernoulli vs real life experiment'

If have close pipe system with water inside pressurized at P1= 200 000Pa absolute, density 1000kg/m3, wider pipe diameter=2cm, contraction pipe diameter=1.49cm, that is contraction area ratio A1/A2=1.8 a) If water is stationary(pump OFF) and if I drill a hole anywhere at pipe, water will leak out, because pressure(200kPa) inside is higher than atmospheric pressure (101 325Pa). b)If I turn on pump and water start flowing with with v1=10m/s in A1 wider section, from Bernoulli equation I...
