A clarinet is a long tube with a mouthpiece on one end and a bell shaped opening on the bottom end. Tone holes run down the clarinet in a vertical row. Besides these holes, there are also holes that are covered with metal rings. These are called keys. Most clarinets are made of wood but they can be also made out of plastic. The overall appearance of a clarinet is black with metal keys.
What kind of clarinet has 17keys?
The standard clarinet and most common clarinet has 17 keys, there are more advance ones that can have up to 22 keys (maybe more if it's a prototype).
What are clarinet pads?
The pads on the valves that close off the holes in the clarinet.
How do you change the notes on a clarinet?
One only needs to press the keys while causing the reed to vibrate by allowing air across it. Clarinet is a cylindrical bore instrument and the more holes open the higher the pitch, vice versa as the holes close the pitch is lowered.

How does a clairnet make sound?
Blowing in the mouthpiece over the reed causes it to vibrate. This causes sound waves that travel down the body of the clarinet. The more holes you close off on the keys, the longer the tube of the clarinet is and the lower the note.
What are clarinet pads?
The pads on the valves that close off the holes in the clarinet.
Who named the clarinet?
At the beginning of the 18th century (and the Classical era), a German instrument maker named Johann Christoph Denner modified the chalumeau by converting one of its keys into a register key to produce the first clarinet. The original Denner clarinets had two keys, playing a chromatic scale. As the instrument grew in popularity, various other makers added more keys to get improved notes, easier fingerings, and a slightly larger range. The classical clarinet of Mozart's day typically had eight finger holes and five keys.
What makes the sound of a clarinet?
Sound is produced by blowing through the horn, causing an attached reed to vibrate. By convering or uncovering the holes/keys the pitch is changed from higher to lower.
How is a clarinet connected to friction?
You can argue that when air passes through the body and holes it creates friction. Also, the whole mechanism when interacting with rods, screws and other keys can create friction.
How do you change the notes on a clarinet?
One only needs to press the keys while causing the reed to vibrate by allowing air across it. Clarinet is a cylindrical bore instrument and the more holes open the higher the pitch, vice versa as the holes close the pitch is lowered.
