    Vague question. Pick your own:

    A diaphram is...

    1. a mechanical device in a camera that controls size of aperture of the lens; "the new cameras adjust the diaphragm automatically"
    2. (anatomy) a muscular partition separating the abdominal and thoracic cavities; functions in respiration
    3. a contraceptive device consisting of a flexible dome-shaped cup made of rubber or plastic; it is filled with spermicide and fitted over the uterine cervix
    4. electro-acoustic transducer that vibrates to receive or produce sound waves

    Milo, you made me laugh to start the day! That was funny.

    I would add #5: a flexible device in a pressure tank used to separate the air above the diaphragm from the water below it. More frequently it is called a bladder.

    A diaphragm is used in aircraft hydraulic system pressure accumulators, having a pressure chamber on one side and fluid delivery chamber on the other side of the diaphragm, Thanks.
