Why does vibrating simple pendulum not produce any sound?
The lowest frequencies we can hear are about 20 Hz - 20 vibrations per second. If (for example) the pendulum moves back and forth once per second, it will produce sound at that frequency, which we are unable to hear. Also, the sound will be of a fairly low intensity.
Which is faster for viberating sound travel solid or liquid or gas or vacuum?
Sounds travel faster in solid materials than any other materials.
Does sound produce waves?
Yes sound does produce waves. These special waves are called sound waves.
When a pendulum swing stops its energy is changed into what?
A pendulum will lose energy in two ways: 1. by friction with the air, 2. by friction in its supporting bearing. Both these energy losses will produce heat.
Why do you hear sound produced by the humming bees while the sound of vibrations of pendulum is not heard?
Generally, no sound is heard when a "simple pendulum" oscillates because of what is happening. It's just moving through the air. In a clock the sound of the "ticking" is the sound of the escapement operating. The pendulum itself makes only "air noise" as it moves back and forth. The pendulum is so small and moves in such a limited way that even if the mechanism was not encased or otherwise screened, it is imporbable that it could be heard moving through the air. In the case of a Foucault pendulum, particularly one of the big ones found in a museum or other display, the weight (called a "bob") on the end of (usually) a cable is massive (to increase the effect of the display - plus, it makes it more "fun" to see a huge weight in motion), and it can be heard moving through the air by a determined listener (if conditions are favorable). Use the link to the article on the Foucault pendulum posted by our friends at Wikipedia.
Why does a vibrating pendulum not produce any sound?
A vibrating simple pendulum does not produce any sound because it oscillates at very low frequencies.

How does saxophones produce a sound?
The air travels through the reed and that vibrates making noise and depending on what holes you have shut it makes a different noise.
Which is faster for viberating sound travel solid or liquid or gas or vacuum?
Sounds travel faster in solid materials than any other materials.
How does saxophone produce sound?
A Saxophone makes noise by a viberating reed being amplfied through a horn
What sound dum produce?
what sound does drum produce
What does the beginning intro of the island by pendulum sound like?
go on youtube lol ??
How do vibrations produce sound waves?
sound waves dont produce vibrations, vibrations are sound waves.
Does sound produce waves?
Yes sound does produce waves. These special waves are called sound waves.
How does the double bass produce it's sound?
if you plunk it with your fingers you produce sound
How would you describe amplitude to someone learning about sound?
Imagine a vibrating pendulum moving back and forth. Amplitude in sound is the size of the air particles vibration during the sound.
