The cello is a stringed instrument that looks similar to a violin, but immense. Not as obese as a bass, but big. It has no shoulder rest, but an end pin which supports the cello. The end-pin sticks in the ground and adjustable while the cello rests on your thighs and shoulder unlike the violin when it rests on your shoulders and hand. It has thicker strings and because of its size and strings, it has a lower, deeper sound. It usually does not have the melody unless it speaks out its beautiful solo. If you listen to a classical CD or radio station, if you listen closely you hear it. Not the lowest and calmest, but the exciting deep wave like the ocean. Its bow has a different lengths too. I suggest going to You-Tube, My Space, a book store, etc. and listen to one of the greatest cello legends, Yo Yo Ma (you'll see). Just because it's classical and that doesn't mean it sucks. There are electric cellos that also can adjust to the rock atmosphere. You don't believe me, check www. mark wood.com (not my website, I'm just a 12, Korean American 6th grade boy in Arizona)! Or type in cobra cello or viper cello. It's awesome! Honestly, I am a cello player myself, I am went to 2 state honors orchestra (last year I got 2 chair and on Feb. of 2009 I got 4 chair. Did pretty good for a sixth grader. The three chairs in front were 8. And sixth is the lowest grade possible in the middle school concert unlike last year in the elementary. TAKE THAT KAVAN! Yeah that's right!) and will be going to an All State concert soon. Last year, I went to one of those honors orchestra things, and there I met Mark Wood. I got second chair and had a heck of a time. Cello isn't always Beethoven Mozart, Bach....it's playing the music you desire with the most finest beautiful voice of all instruments (just my opinion). When I am bored, I play it. It's the only thing that makes me happy. Yes, Yes, you may think Call of Duty 5 is better. Sometimes I think that too. But when I am frustrated of it or bored cause I'm all alone. I just play it. I t makes me calm and relaxed. Excellent! So I suggest giving it a try. CELLO doesn't suck, IT DOMINATES! Sorry if I went a little too far, but after all, I'm 12 and play the cello AND next week, I perform at the honors orchestra.

How is a hourglass shaped like a Hyperbolas?

An hourglass is shaped like a hyperbola because it consists of two conic sections that open away from each other, resembling the two branches of a hyperbola. The narrowest part of the hourglass corresponds to the center of the hyperbola, where the two curves diverge. This geometric relationship highlights how the hourglass design can be mathematically represented using hyperbolic equations, illustrating the connection between physical shapes and mathematical concepts.

How do sand clocks work?

The ''Sand Clock'' is really called an Hourglass, and the reason for that is because it takes the sand and hour to reach the other end of the glass. An hourglass is a curved shaped object that has two ends. The hourglass Has sand inside it which Is placed at the bottom of the hourglass, but when you turn the hourglass up side down, the sand slowly runs through a hole to the other end of the glass. When the sand has finally finished flowing it will end up looking like how it was in the first place.
