If a tuning fork vibrates over an open pipe what causes vibrations in the air in the pipe?
Resonance
Second note of a musical scale?
Super Tonic.
What is the relationship between the number on the tuning fork and the pitch of the tuning fork?
In a simplistic way, pitches are nothing more than vibrations in the air. These vibrations happen at certain frequencies (the number of vibrations per second, measured in Hertz). The more vibrations per second the higher we perceive that pitch to be. A440 is now the tuning standard - that means that that A, in the middle of the treble staff, vibrates 440 times per second, or at 440 Hz. A note an octave higher would vibrate at 880 Hz and an octave lower vibrates at 220 Hz. Most tuning forks are pitched at A440, but you can get other notes (and even other temperaments). Those other notes vibrate at different frequencies, so the number on the tuning fork correspond to the numbers of vibrations-per-second that tuning fork makes.
What was Tchaikovskys Musical style period?
Romantic, in the second half of the 1800s.
Who is Gigi from the Broadway musical Grease?
she is the second main character, well as a girl
The sound from a mosquito is produced when it vibrates its wings at an average rate of 500 vibrations per second What is the time period of the vibration?
1;500 per second
How is pitch related to wave speed?
The faster the wave speed, the higher the pitch of the sound will be. 20 vibrations is the lowest amount of vibrations needed per second for a human to be able to hear it
The frequency of a sound wave is interpreted as what?
It means, how many vibrations per second are there.It means, how many vibrations per second are there.It means, how many vibrations per second are there.It means, how many vibrations per second are there.
What do you call the number of vibrations per second?
Vibrations a second are measured in Hertz.
How vibrations produced in your ear by a sound enable you to hear the sound?
The idea is that our ears have organs which are specifically designed to detect those vibrations. Note that only vibrations between about 20 and 20,000 hertz (i.e., cycles per second) can be detected by human ears.
How do vibrations produced in your ear by a sound wave enable you to hear the sound?
The idea is that our ears have organs which are specifically designed to detect those vibrations. Note that only vibrations between about 20 and 20,000 hertz (i.e., cycles per second) can be detected by human ears.
What is meant by a musical octave?
The interval of eight diatonic degrees between two tones of the same name, the higher of which has twice as many vibrations per second as the lower.
How many vibrations per second are made with high c?
5 vibrations per second are made with high c
When you make the note lower what do you change?
The frequency - that is, the number of vibrations per second. Lower notes have less vibrations per second.
How many vibrations per second are represented in a radio wave of 101.7 MHz?
The "M" in "MHz" means millions; and "Hz" means "vibrations (or cycles) per second". Thus, MHz means "millions of vibrations per second".
If an object produces a sound of 440 hertz how fast does the object vibrate?
440 Hertz means 440 cycles (or vibrations) per second.440 Hertz means 440 cycles (or vibrations) per second.440 Hertz means 440 cycles (or vibrations) per second.440 Hertz means 440 cycles (or vibrations) per second.
An object that completes 100 vibrations in 5 seconds has a period of?
It completes 20 vibrations per second, the the period is 1/20 of a second.
