Question What is the piezoelectric effect?
The conversion of electrical energy into mechanical (sound) energy and vice versa — the fundamental principle of transducer operation.
Question What happens when frequency increases?
Wavelength decreases, resolution improves, but penetration decreases. There's always a trade-off!
Question What is aliasing in Doppler?
An artifact that occurs when the Doppler shift exceeds the Nyquist limit (½ PRF), causing the waveform to wrap around.
