Is it possible for a phonon that 10^10,000 Hz [thats
10-to-the-power-10,000 hz; or 10 followed by 10,000 zeros] to exist in
Earth's atmosphere?
Thanks,
Radium
what tha fok is a phonon, a sound particle?
i suppose that in upper atmosphere sounds propagate
very hard, regardless their frequencies
whay so many zeros?
Will you shut the fuck up and stop asking inane questions already?
Every week it is one stupid question after another. Christ.

Yes.
> whay so many zeros?
I am trying to test the limits of ultrasound. I've read claims that
there is no upper limit to the highest-possible frequency of sound.
I suppose this means it is physically-possible to have an acoustic
pure-sine-wave tone that is 140 dB and
10^1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000... <insert infinite number of
zeros>... 000,000,000,000,000 Hz in any environment with air?
then you need a hard piezoelectric material, thay goes up
to gigahertz, if thay vibrate at higher frequencies than they
may loose some electrons or atoms, large scale damage
may occure
lets hear what relativity has to say about it

Spewing idiot.
A simple web search produces:
In physics, a phonon is a quantized mode of vibration occurring in a
rigid crystal lattice, such as the atomic lattice of a solid.
Since the Earth's atmosphere is not a crystal lattice, your question
is meaningless.

He's talking about acoustic waves through air.

not frequency dependent, therefore it can be

Really? I suggest you think about such things such as
viscosity of the medium
upper limits for source vibration....
Who is Bill Attainder?
Is he related to Salmon Egg?
you are right, is not about the speed of sound
but the upper limit of vibrations

Which limits the frequency.
correct, so tha question still make sense
at higher atmosphere the viscosity is very low
to zero, so vhf sounds may propagate

What could create a vibration that quickly without incurring
relativistic effects?
How far does light travel in that time?
Compare to the planck length.
i don know man, im just speculatin

the highest amplitude i hear is the amplitude of muons,

You are confusing sound with EM radiation
The upper limit to sound in the earth's atmosphere is around 10^9 hz. As
it gets more rareified, that isn't going to get higher, it gets lower.

About sound. Sound is radiant energy transmitted in longitudinal waves
that consist of alternating compressions and rarefactions in a medium.
The maximum possible frequency of sound in any medium is approximately
1.25 癬 1013 Hertz (Hz). The speed of sound depends on properties of the
material through which it travels (see Table 1). Sound has propagation
features quite different from that of light, which makes it an excellent
alternative in situations where light does not work well.

wrong,
the allowed propagating frequencies by the system will
increase when you go toward vacum
dont be a fool, in order to displace the rare air moleculers you only
need higher amplitude, there will be less viscosity damping the
higher frequencies

Speed of light?
So you are now saying a vacuum is a perfect medium to transfer sound?

take a medium with 1m appart air molecules in equilibrum,
give them a 1.2m displacement amplitude then a sound will propagate
less viscosity implies less hf damping for displacement frequencies

I never said that - I said there was a FUNDAMENTAL upper limit as sound
is a pressure wave. The actual limit is lower then this.

Considering you don't even understand SR/GR as made obvious by your

zeros>... 000,000,000,000,000 seconds.
That's a click. We get those from lightning strikes.
What is the amplitude of a phonon?
Tough question, a lightning click becomes rumbling thunder.
What is the speed of a phonon?
What is the direction of a phonon?
Androcles.
A phonon cannot propagate in a fluid medium in which the mean free path
(the average distance that a molecule of the fluid can travel before
encountering another particle) is longer than the wavelength of the
phonon.
For air the mean free path is about 7x10^-6 cm (longer for lower
pressures).
For phonons the speed of sound in air is about 300 meters/second.
Can you calculate the frequency of a hypothetical phonon in air with a
wavelength of 7x10^-6 cm?
For practical applications, the phonons will be required to carry
without dissipation for some distance, so the *useful* frequencies of
sound in air will be much lower.

Here in article "1.25 A~ 1013 Hertz (Hz)." actually means
1.25 * 10^13, much more that 1000 Hz, very bad conversion created much
unneeded confusion. I myself think that 10^13 is much to large frequency
to propagate through air.

Get a life, you stupid fuck. You don't contribute

has not been cross-posted to alt.music.home-stuido.
Not really. Practically, up around 8 MHz or so sound won't travel more
than a inch or two at the very most before various factors makes it
fall apart which is why high frequeny ultrsound is usually used in a
liquid medium where there may actually be no limit to the ffrequency
moving through it. Notice I said "may" not be a limit.
