    An orchestral instrument like mine would be the flute because it has two open ends like mine does. The physics behind a flute is that it can either be an open or closed end pipe and it depends on what kind of flute you get. With the harmonics the lower holes are in the flute to shorten the air column to raise the fundamental frequency of the open air column. To make an higher note you can force the air column to sound its second harmonic‚ up an octave from the fundamental.In a flute decreasing

    Identify the three domains of development‚ as described in Chapter 1. The three domains of adult development are physical development‚ cognitive development‚ and socioemotional development. The interesting fact about the study of physical development is that it not only looks at obvious physical changes but at the unseen changes such as changes in the brain (Witt‚ Mossler‚ 2010‚ p. 3). Although both the study of physical development and cognitive development look at the brain‚ the study of physical
