Deflection
Sound quantities |
---|
The momentary distance x of a point P (on a curve or a straight line) from its rest position is referred to as deflection or elongation of an oscillation .
The greatest deflection is called the amplitude and is indicated by the mathematical symbol as the maximum value.
For example, the amplitude of the sound displacement ξ (Greek Xi ) of a harmonic oscillation is :
With
- Speed of sound v
- Angular frequency ω = 2 · π · f
- Sound pressure p
- Characteristic acoustic impedance Z
- Sound acceleration a .
