Ok this may sound stupid to everyone out there but... sound waves can be used for many many things including heating and cooling*cooling of ben and jerry's ice cream at the factory even* Now does anyone know if sound waves of any level/amptitude disrupt electrons? I want to experiment with soemthing and this thought hit me... any imput?
sound is generally defined as the translation of air compression and rarefication by the timpanic membrane of the ear. Basically you're not going to corrupt a molecular component using the compression of air, no.
Sound is simply a wave produced by particles of matter vibrating, or compressing back and forth. A particle bumps into another particle, and that particle bums into another particle, and so on.
Sound can travel through anythin, solid, liquid, or gas. I don't know what happens at the molecular level when sound is produced, but I doubt much.
Think about it, if something was actually powerful enough, and capable of producing frequency's high enough or low enough to disrupt single molecules, you'd think the object creating the sound would be destroyed way before you interupted an electron.
