When a pupil plays a flute in a classroom why does the window vibrate?
the window will vibrate because sound travels like a vibration in the air. so when it comes in contact with an object the vibration will cause it to vibrate.
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!
How do guitars generate sound?
When you strum or pluck a string, the vibration from the string vibrates the air around it causing a sound to be made. The hole behind the strings is there so when the noise travels and hits off the back of it, it will make an echo.
The longest river in the world travels through Egypt Sudan and Uganda?
The Nile River.
What causes music and noise?
In our ears, we have hairs that are set to receive different pitches. When a hair picks up a sound, a signal is sent to the brain. When the instrument makes a sound, it disturbs the air molecules around it. The vibration wave travels out and hits our ears.
When you bang on a drum with the drum sticks where does he sound come from?
When you bang the drumsticks on the animal hide, the vibration travels through it into the vibration box. It doesn't produce a note but a amplified hollow vibration.
Does light energy produce vibration?
yes, light travels through vibrations. light vibrations are in the form of pure energy. it travels in the form of pure electro-magnetic radiation. therefore light can travel in both withought vibration and with vibration.
How does sound travel through solid objects?
Sound is a longitudinal wavelength that has wavelength, velocity, frequency and amplitude. It travels through solid objects by going through vibration.
When huge layers of rock break under the ground the effect is a massive vibration that travels through out the ground what causes to happen?
it becomes a dormant
Explain how sound travels?
Sound travels in waves called sound waves and they look like this )))))))))))))))))))))) except they are invisible
Sound travels through?
Sound can travel through any material, air, liquid or solid It cannot travel through a vacuum. Sound is a vibration on an audible level, or frequency. It requires matter to continue, without matter the vibration has nothing to continue through and will reflect back and forth in what matter is present until it dissipates.
Which one travels through matter only light or sound?
Sound requires matter as sound is the vibration of matter. Light is more complex as it is the giving off of photons from atoms.
What is needed for a sound to travel?
Particles, e.g gas particles in air, because sound travels through the vibration of particles. Sound waves cannot travel in a vacuum, as there are no particles.
Why do an earthquake vibration weakens as it moves from the center?
This is because the waves have less power as it travels.
How do you get noises?
the vibration of whatever is making noise. then the wave travels to your ear drum and vibrates it.
Does sound travel travel faster through solid or gas?
Sound travels faster through solids. It does this because sound is generated mainly due to the mediums molecule vibration in a pattern. In solids, the molecules are more closely packed when compared to gases. Hence, the vibration occurs faster and hence the sound is tramsmitted sooner
The speed of sound, like all waves, depends on the ____ through which it travels?
Sound travels at different speeds depending on what it is traveling through. Of the three mediums (gas, liquid, and solid) sound waves travel the slowest through gases, faster through liquids, and fastest through solids. Temperature also affects the speed of sound.
