Specific Impedance of Acoustic Components
The specific acoustic impedance z of an acoustic component (in N·s/m3) is the ratio of sound pressure p to particle velocity v at its connection point:
where
- p is the sound pressure (N/m² or Pa),
- v is the particle velocity (m/s), and
- I is the sound intensity (W/m²)

“The permanence of all books is fixed by no effort friendly or hostile, but by their own specific gravity, or the intrinsic importance of their contents to the constant mind of man.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“Hence, a generative grammar must be a system of rules that can iterate to generate an indefinitely large number of structures. This system of rules can be analyzed into the three major components of a generative grammar: the syntactic, phonological, and semantic components.”
—Noam Chomsky (b. 1928)
