    What are some unique music experiments to try?

    You can find programs online, you just need a computer w/ a mic. As for the equations... my book is at school right now and I can't remember the exact equation related linear density to frequency. I remember that the equation for a string/metal bar lengthening or shortening under changing...

    What are some unique music experiments to try?

    Temperature affects a string in this way: due to specific heat capacities in a string, especially a metal one, the string will get longer as it gets warmer, or shorter as it gets colder. As it gets longer or shorter, the tension decreases or increases; the frequency of a note on a string is...

    What are some unique music experiments to try?

    Oops. Thanks for the correction Vanadium. :smile: The destructive interference science fair subject that I did was pure physics. But the stuff on my blog that I'm doing as a project for school now is a very heavy mix of physics and psychology. It's amazing to see how intricately the two mesh...

    Is There Credible Evidence Supporting Psychic Phenomena?

    Check out Derren Brown's interview with Richard Dawkins. It's not physics, it's psychological deception/manipulation.

    What are some unique music experiments to try?

    I once did a science fair project investigating how environmental humidity would affect complete destructive interference. I didn't get the waves to fully "destruct"; beats only dimmed the volume from 3dB to 5dB, or about 1/2 to 1/3 the amplitude (went from 54dB starting to 49-51dB after...

    Medical Searching for the Human Connection -Physics and Music.

    Searching for the "Human Connection"--Physics and Music. Hello everyone! I'm currently a senior in high school (going off to study architecture at either Rensselaer Polytech Ins., Marywood U, or Philadelphia U) and am doing an independent research project on the topic of relating acoustic...
