This must be because hitting the bottle makes it ring at it's natural frequency, which is determined by the glass envelope itself, whereas blowing across the top sets up a standing wave in the air inside the bottle. Thus they are two quite separate and different phenomena.

What will happen to the bottle if the air pressure inside the bottle sucked out?

With less gas inside the bottle, it will weigh less. But not by very much, for the mass of the volume of air is slight. If he bottle is evacuated, then its shape will change slightly - but once again, a small amount. If the bottle is fragile, it may collapse. This would be expected for a plastic bottle, such as a soft drink bottle.


If a bottle is filled with hot air and then put in a freezer why will the bottle change volume and shape?

When the hot air inside the bottle cools down in the freezer, it will contract and decrease in volume. This decrease in volume causes the pressure inside the bottle to decrease, leading to a change in its shape. The bottle may collapse or deform as a result of the reduced pressure.


Why does the amount of water in a bottle affect the pitch when you hit it?

The pitch of the sound produced by hitting a bottle is determined by the frequency of vibrations in the bottle. When you change the amount of water in the bottle, you are changing the air volume within the bottle, which alters the frequency of the vibrations and hence the pitch of the sound produced.


What is the significance of the open window with curtains blowing in the scene?

The open window with curtains blowing in a scene can symbolize freedom, change, or a sense of openness. It can also suggest a shift in perspective or a new beginning.


Why would a bottle implode from hot to cold?

A bottle can implode when subjected to a sudden change in temperature from hot to cold because the air inside the bottle contracts rapidly, creating a vacuum which collapses the bottle. The external pressure remains constant while the internal pressure decreases, causing the bottle to implode.

How does the volume of the water in the glass bottles affect the pitch?

The pitch is governed by the length of the column of air in the bottle, so you can change that by adding or removing a liquid like water. Are you blowing across the top or striking the bottle?


Does the release of the scent perfume from a bottle show a chemical change?

No. It is a physical change. Substances are only move from inside a container to outside it, the identity of the substances does not change.


Does the pressure in the ocean change the shape of a glass bottle?

Yes, the pressure in the ocean can potentially change the shape of a glass bottle. The external water pressure increases the deeper you go in the ocean, which can lead to the bottle being compressed or deformed due to the difference in pressure inside and outside the bottle.


What makes a bottle collapse?

A bottle can collapse if there is a significant change in pressure inside the bottle compared to the pressure outside, causing the walls of the bottle to buckle inwards. This can happen if the bottle is not able to withstand the pressure differential, or if it is made of a weak material. Additionally, extreme temperatures or physical impacts can also cause a bottle to collapse.

What happens when you blow over the mouth of a test tube which is half filled with water?

Blowing over the mouth of the test tube will create a decrease in air pressure inside the tube. This decrease in pressure will cause the water in the test tube to rise up due to the higher pressure outside the tube. Ultimately, the water level in the test tube will rise as a result of the change in pressure.
