Which is the best description of a conical bore instrument?
The size of the tubing remains the same throughout the length of the instrument
Why is the trumpet the highest pitched brass instrument?
It has the shortest tubing and therefore the highest resonance.
Which brass instrument would be 9 feet long if you were to unwind all the tubing?
The Bb Trumpet, NOT the French Horn, has 9 ft. French horns have 12-18 feet of tubing.

How do the valvs work on a brass instrument?
The valves in a brass instrument re-direct the air into different parts of the tubing. Each valve controls a different part of the instrument. The longer the tubing, the lower the note will be.

What are the similarities and differences between wind and brass instruments?
One difference is that woodwind instruments use a wooden reed to form the mouthpiece. The reed sits at the back of the mouthpiece (on the bottom lip) and vibrates against the rest of the mouthpiece to help create the sound. Brass and woodwind instruments are both played by blowing into them (or over them in the case of the flute). Brass instruments do not have any moving parts that vibrate to create a sound. They merely amplify the sound created by the players lips vibrating. Woodwind instruments have a reed that vibrates except for the flute which splits a column of air to make vibrations. Brass instruments change their pitch by changing the length of tubing which the air passes through. Woodwind instruments change their pitch by changing the where the air escapes from the instrument.
How are the valves used in brass instruments?
Brass instrument have valves to change the length of tubing that the air passes through. This allows the instrument to play different notes of various harmonic series.
Do you go faster snow tubing if you are heavy?
Sometimes it does matter but it is easier to go faster when you are a kid and are lighter!
Which makes the higher sound a trombone or a trumpet and why?
The trumpet in general is a higher pitched instrument because it is smaller and has less tubing.
