Topic awaiting preservation: Any Physics Guys Out there? (Page 1 of 1)

hey guys help me on this one....
here is something i couldnt get the answer for. help me out.


Which type of noise affects all transmission frequencies equally?

[ ] baseband interference
[ ] narrowband interference
[ ] broadband interference
[ ] black noise
[ ] white noise
[ ] gray noise

White noise would be your answer, becuase white noise is a generalised noise covering all frquency ranges. It was often used as a form of 'therapy' (read: torture) to inmates at insane asylum, becuase it totally cut off all sound while setting up a strange reaction in the ears that after a while can become quite painful.

Yeah, we actually used to use it here, as a matter of fact, but I vigorously lobbied for a switch to shock therapy. I think we're much better off.

And that was a physics question?

hehe.. isn't it a physics question?

Well, to be perfectly honest with you, I haven't studied physics for at least ten years now. I probably wouldn't know a physics question if I met one in a dark alley and it beat me to within an inch of my life. So it very well might be.

Wouldn't that be a Physical question?
Beating you up like that

After some research on the radio I found the noise that affects nearly every frequency known to man to be,, Boy Bands and Girl Bands.
Other than that Spatter I'm not too sure, I suspect it's "white noise" So.....
I think skaarjj gets the...

I hate boy/girl bands..yeecch

I would have to agree with the White Noise answer.

White noise as torture? HA! I use white noise to go to sleep.

Yes...that is one of it's uses now...but to people who were...not quite right in the head, it could be a form of torture becuase suddenly they've been cut off from everything around them. Without the distraction of other sounds around them their delusions could be more pronounced. The voice in the head get louder kind of thing.

Actually I don't think it's white noise. White noise is acoustic energy covering sound, not transmitted noise or interference.



.:[ Never resist a perfect moment ]:.

any kind of transmissible interference can also be audible, simply by running it through an interpretation circuit (aka: a radio). Inversely, any audible interference noise can be transmitted and maintain it's properties, which, in this case, is to override any other transmitted signal of equal or lesser power.

No, that was just me.
