How does a straw flute work?

When you blow on the end of the straw, the two pieces of the tip vibrate together. This makes a vibration, which is necessary to make sound. But the tips don't just vibrate at any old frequency. No sir! The vibration travels down the straw, and reflects from the end. This sets up a wave in the air in the straw; the vibration will bounce back and forth between the two ends. It is this vibration that you are hearing! Changing the length of the straw (by clipping it off, or by making a straw trombone) changes the time necessary for the vibration to travel up and down the straw, and so changes the pitch. And making a hole in the straw, so it is like a real flute, lets the vibration bounce off from where the hole is, which will also change the pitch!


Is the Gemeinhardt Model 2NP Student Flute any good?

The Gemeinhardt Model 2NP is a student model of flute. It is a good flute to learn on, but does not have a rich, concert-quality sound.


What is the antonym for flute?

There is no antonym for flute. An antonym is a word with the opposite meaning, and that's a ludicrous concept to apply to a flute. (For example: a flute produces high notes, so maybe the opposite would be an instrument that produces low notes. But something that isn't a musical instrument at all would be even more unlike a flute. It rapidly gets to the point that you could name just about anything and justify it as being "not like a flute in any way.")

What is vibrating in a flute?

Air moves through the Flute, bouncing off the sides.


Why do you think sound is considered to be a type of kinetic energy?

Sound is considered to be a type of kinetic energy because it is a form of energy that is produced by the movement of objects or particles. Kinetic energy is any energy that is in motion and sound is produced by the vibrational motion of particles. The energy of sound is created by the movement of air particles which are set in motion by a vibrating object. This vibration produces sound waves which travel through the air until they reach our ears. Sound is an example of kinetic energy because it requires motion to be produced. This motion is created by the vibration of an object which causes molecules in the air to vibrate or oscillate. This vibration is then picked up by our ears and interpreted as sound. The energy of the sound is a result of this vibration and is therefore considered a form of kinetic energy. Sound is also considered a type of kinetic energy because it carries energy with it as it moves through space. This energy is in the form of sound waves which are created by the vibration of objects and particles. As the sound waves move they carry energy with them which can be converted into other forms of energy. This is why sound is considered to be a form of kinetic energy.


Can any sounds at all be heard in outer space?

No, because sound is a vibration of the air and there is no air in space.


Why can light travel through space but sound cannot?

sound is produced by vibration, i.e. when any thing start vibration then it produces sound. for example when a tunnig fork is hit on rubber pad its prongs starts vibration with difinit frequency ad hence produce sound. similarly when the strings of a gittar is dirturbed its starts vibration and hence produces sound. sound required a material medium for their journey, sound can not pass through vaccume because sound waves are mechanical waves.


When you play the flute does the air blowing across the mouthpiece vibrate to make a sound?

Although, you do blow across the mouthpiece to make a sound on the flute the air either travels across and escapes or travels through the instrument. The air stream does not split as might be expected. The air stream vibrates the lip plate and head tube. The rest of the flute acts as a resonator creating waves of a certain lenghth (and therefore a certain pitch) depending on with keys, if any, are depressed. I added a related link in case you need more info. Edit: The air spins around the tube after hitting the back wall. The number of keys you press down determines how far that air has to travel down the tube of the flute. It requires more air than most instruments because half of the air doesn't go into the flute.


What is vibrato on a trumpet?

The instrument like any wind instrument produces sound by vibration. The tone produced does not naturally change in pitch the Vibrato effect is created by moving the instrument against the lip lightly or moving the jaw producing a wah-wah effect.


Why can't you hear any sound from space?

Space is a Vacuum, consequently there are no atoms/particles to pass on the vibration a sound makes, so the sound cannot travel, and this is because space is a Vacuum.
