Hi,
I have a question about mechanical waves (sound and ultrasonic waves for instance). I am familiar with wavelength formula: lambda=C/F But I am not able to understand why a sound wave (10 KHz for instance) which has a LONGER wavelength than an ultrasonic wave can pass through a barrier like a thin wall while an ultrasonic wave (50 KHz for instance) will reflect from it??
I know that my question is a physical question not an electronically question but I noticed that problem when I was working with different speakers.
Thanks for any advice.
