the flute‚ violin‚ piano‚ and oboe. The Fourier Series can be used to explain why each of the instruments have their own unique sound. The flute‚ violin‚ piano and oboe have different combinations of frequencies as each waveform is made of an unique combination of sine and cosine waves‚ and this creates distinct waveforms and allows each instrument to have a unique sound. Recall that the formula of the Fourier Series is f(x)=a_0+∑_(k=1)^∞▒(a_k cos〖πkx/T〗+b_k sin〖πkx/T〗 ) The Fourier Series is

Goals and never-ending ambitions. Sound waves travel into different organism’s ear canals but what happens when sounds are interrupted by dense walls or by a simple thin bag? Many factors can prevent multiple screams and shouts to effectively alarm and demand assistance‚ but in many cases‚ the sounds are successfully concealed as the perpetrator accomplishes their malevolent actions. Reality can cause a grown man to tremble at the sight of death and violence just like how a child begins to tremble

One philosophy that some persons question‚ including a few of our own aviation medical examiners‚ relates to our greater flexibility in granting special issuances to private pilots as opposed to air carrier and other commercial pilots. The arguments against such flexibility rotate around the thought that‚ in the event of a medical incapacitation‚ an air carrier or commercial pilot usually has another pilot on board who can take control of the aircraft and safely land. In contrast‚ the private pilot

in blissful ignorance of sounds that’s not usual for fear of those being something big that will cost a fortune to repair. Cars can make a racket of sounds. Whereas some sounds are normal and harmless‚ there are some sounds that need immediate attention. Mc Master commented that where the sound on the car is coming from can sometimes be deceiving as to what the true

My body shivered. I started to sweat and bite my nails. I hugged my pillow as close to my body as the water pounded furiously outside. The wind made weird‚ frightening noises outside while the house inside creaked. I payed close attention to all these noises as I unblinkingly watched the T.V. monitor. "Maybe this was a bad idea"‚ I said to myself as I dug my nails into my thighs. Maybe it was a bad idea to stay home alone in the middle of the night‚ as it rained furiously outside while thunder struck

CCCH9008 Noise Pollution and Control in HK Two important characteristics of sound or noise Frequency of Sound Sound is the quickly varying pressure wave travelling through a medium. When sound travels through air‚ the atmospheric pressure varies periodically. The number of pressure variations per second is called the frequency of sound‚ and is measured in Hertz (Hz) - cycles per second. Loudness A loud noise usually has a larger pressure variation and a weak one has smaller pressure variation

Kamien points out how each instrument varied in dynamic‚ speed‚ tone color‚ and mood. I thought that Benjamin Brittan gave a great presentation of the sounds of the different instruments in an orchestra. To answer the question “Is Brittan accomplishing his task of introducing the instruments of the orchestra?” I would

the absorption coefficient α of MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard) and Fiber Cement through an improvised standing wave apparatus consist of an enclosed tube with a speaker on one end and the sample material on the other end. The maximum and minimum sound pressure developed inside the tube is measured by a moving microphone probe and the Standing Wave Ratio SWR and the absorption coefficient of the samples is calculated. The absorption behavior of each sample was also investigated in response to varying

peace. The noise is an undesirable‚ or to man unpleasant sound. The intensity of sound is expressed in units of sound pressure‚ or decibels. A very low whisper is about 10 dB‚ while a conversation in a normal tone is about 60 db and the sound of a rock concert reaches about 100 db. The main sources of noise are: means of transport such as cars‚ buses and motorcycles; industrial activities; construction; machine shops; loud speakers and sound cars; appliances; horns‚ bells‚ whistles‚ pumps‚ etc.
