What role do hertz play in electrical transformers?
Q. Does more hertz mean more volts with less amp loss? What what what? Be specific and try not to dumb it down a lot I know a decent part of electricity.
Asked by jchalase - Mon Jun 1 00:33:19 2009 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Hertz is the number of cycles per second. In North America, electricity is generated at 60 Hz - that means the electrons move forward, then back again, 60 times in one second. In the UK, it's 50 Hz - 50 times in one second. The voltage still hits the same peak. In a resistive load, the current reaches the same peak too. If you have a capacitive load, the higher the frequency in Hz, the more current you will have at the same peak voltage. If you have an inductive load, the higher the frequency in Hz, the less current you will have at the same peak voltage.

A. I know of several discounts, coupon codes, and promo codes that all stack together. Stacking is a term we use in the promo code biz :)Basically what it means is you can keep using more and more coupon codes and Hertz still gives you the credit for it.

Is there a device that can measure a sound or musical note in hertz?
Q. I'm looking to record a note that is 100 hertz specifically, probably with a synth or an old organ.
Asked by flip - Fri Jul 4 16:14:23 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. There are many ways to measure frequency Ex: Frequency spectometer, modern scopes. However, if 100 Hz is a standard freq in instruments - a simple electronic tuner may do the job. Make sure the recording medium can actually record such a low frequency (that is: both the microphone and the input and the recording medium support that freq. response)

A. Your refrigerator won't fail because the voltage is the same. The compressor motor however, will faster by 20 per cent. This won't cause any failure because, when your freezer is cool enough, the thermostat will cause a motor stoppage.

Q. Calculate the frequency, in hertz, of the photon that is emitted when a electron falls from level n = 6 to level n = 1 in the H atom.
Asked by lampard p - Thu Sep 27 21:17:43 2007 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Electron energy in the hydrogen atom is solely a function of the electron's principal quantum number n. This is related through the equation E = (-13.6 ev) / n^2. If an electron makes a transition from the n = 6 energy level to the n = 1 energy level, this equation tells you that there has been a change in energy of -13.6 eV - (-0.38 eV) = -13.2 eV, which is equivalent to -2.1 x 10^(-18) J. This energy is released in the form of electromagnetic radiation. Since the energy E of a photon is related to its frequency f by the equation E = hf, we have that f = E/h = (2.1 x 10^(-18) J) / (6.6 x 10^(-34) Js) = 3.2 x 10^(15) Hz. This would place it in the ultraviolet portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, which is where most of the Lyman series… [cont.]

A. You can ask for a special type of transformer that is used on PCs. They work just as well with the PS2. You still have to deal with the region lock, however, as Australian PS2 games will not run on a US console and vice-versa, without having it modified.

What does hertz mean in reference to car audio?

Asked by OneLove - Tue Dec 8 11:13:24 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. While the previous answer is correct, there are many more uses of hertz involved in car audio. Hertz is the unit of measure of frequency, or the number of cycles per unit of time. In sound the number of times per second a wave of pressure passes. In sound itself, this determines the pitch of the sound. A high number of hertz implies a high pitch, while a low number implies a low pitch. While the generally accepted range of human hearing is 20 hertz to 2000 hertz, the sum of frequencies produced outside of this range has an effect of on what we hear within this range. Within acoustics, frequency has larger implications than just the sound heard by itself. For example, a vehicle has a resonant frequency, the frequency at which the car… [cont.]

A. you mean is the box tuned to 36 hz or the subs only play 36 hz? It also depends on the music you listen to. I personally like heart stopping but barely audiable bass so I tune my stuff in the 20 hz range. this way you hear it more than feel it. But if you like to hear bass at crazy levels, than yes 36 hz would be good. anything under 50 hz and the ear cannot tell where the sound is coming from - this tricks the ear thinking the sound is coming from the speakers and not the subwoofer, if ur sub is playing in the 60-80 hz range, you ears will know it is coming from behind you and may throw off your listening experience. for the loudest bass possible, tune your box to the f3 of your sub (the natural fz for the sub to make [if you tap the… [cont.]

How come my laptop only has the option to use 60 hertz for its refresh rate?
Q. Is the screen only compatible with 60hertz or is there some other option I can use? And how will this effect my game-play?(frames per second) thank you.
Asked by JHoff! - Sat Jan 9 01:29:01 2010 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. The human eye cannot detect more than 60 frames per second. So 60 hertz is the obvious option for the standard screen. your screen refresh rate will only affect frame-rate if you have v-sync enabled... in which case your frame-rate cannot exceed 60. In closing you want to keep your refresh rate at 60 because 1.) You won't be able to tell the difference. and 2.) even if you could... your screen is made to work well at that refresh rate.

Asked by Donna - Mon Jan 25 22:51:54 2010 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. The generally accepted range for human hearing is 20 Hz to 2000 Hz. 20 is the very low end of you you hear, and is incredibly low bass. At these frequencies it's more about feeling the sound than hearing it. If you know someone with a strong system that can handle subsonics(the notes below 20Hz, that most people won't be able to hear) ask them to play Woofer Cooker for you. This will show you the low end. Caution: There are not many systems out there that can truly handle subsonics, so your friend may literally cook their woofers playing this song. You can easily find this with an internet search. 2000 Hz and above is into dog whistle territory: Too high for you to hear. It is accepted though that sounds above this frequency will… [cont.]
