Illustration of music on fire This experiment is called a Rubens tube. Each note has a wavelength and a frequency. When the notes change, the fire reflects them through the tube.
Cleaning a ring with ultrasonic A diamond ring is placed in an ultrasonic cleaning machine. From the first seconds, we can see the results of ultrasonic cleaning, which sends ultrasound waves (with a frequency of 20 kHz to 170 kHz) in liquid (water or other solvent).
Master of sound effects A master of sound effects, creates the illusion of the sound of a firework.
The hot chocolate effect The hot chocolate effect, is a phenomenon that is reproduced by stirring a hot liquid and adding soluble powder. Tap the edge of the cup repeatedly one by one the spoon, we notice that the sound produced has an increasingly louder tone. This effect is explained by fluctuations in the speed of sound in the liquid, due to the presence of gas bubbles. The wavelength of this sound that is heard, determined by the size of the cup, and the frequency of sound depends on its velocity in the liquid. The presence of air bubbles in the liquid significantly reduces this speed. So the sound sounds more bass (lower frequency) with bubbles, and thinner (higher frequency)when there are no bubbles.
The house of Mobius A three-dimensional optical illusion inspired by the table "The house of Mobius" Του István Orosz. The illusion shows an unlikely wall located on a Mobius strip, i.e. a strip with only one, single side.
The sound of a balloon popping: reverberation chamber vs anachoic chamber A man pops a balloon in a reverberation chamber, wherein the acoustic field is completely diffused. Then, do the same test in an anechoic chamber, where the walls absorb sound waves. The difference in sound is huge.
The sound of the collision of two black holes The gravitational waves recorded by the collision of two black holes turned into sound waves, as can be heard in this video. On September 14, 2015, the LIGO Observatory detected gravitational waves from the merger of two black holes, with each having 30 times the mass of our sun. The incredibly strong collision lasted only for milliseconds. The first two reproductions, the frequencies of sound waves with frequencies precisely matched the gravitational waves. In the other two iterations has been converting sounds at higher frequencies that best match the range of human hearing. The video finishes playing the original frequencies again twice.
Use sound waves to flameout A fire extinguisher that uses low-frequency sound waves to extinguish a fire. The idea and realization was graduate Tran Viet michanollogwn and Seth Robertson, now they hold the patent on this revolutionary device.
Pyro Board: Flames that respond to sound The Pyro is a Board table, where LPG and sound combine to produce flames in the rhythm of the music. The sound waves that pass through it creates different pressures inside the, and so affect the height and color of the flame.
Speakers: Magnetism and sound The speakers are taking advantage of the interaction of magnetic fields to generate sound waves. This video explains and describes how you can construct a simple speaker.
You can listen to radio using plants; An AM radio signal transmission antenna in Ukraine produces sound through plants. This is why the transmission is done through troughs of voltage of power supply evaporates moisture to plants proportionally, creating sound waves.
Static flow An incredible illusion is created when the frequency of sound waves and water flow is synchronized with the framerate (images per second) a camcorder. The water looks like it's static and drops to levitate.
Go diving without getting wet The diving ship Carl Straat located in the river Rhine, makes it possible to carry out observations and experiments without a diving suit at the bottom of the water.
Reflection on a rock On the walls of the Carnarvon Gorge in Australia, a man throws a stone into the water to show us the beautiful reflection of the surface waves on the rock wall.
A peacock breathes fire Like a dragon, a peacock shoots fire from its beak. An impressive optical illusion, as the setting sun illuminates the peacock's warm breath during a cold day.
