Mr. Biengessner was so impressed with straw whistle activity he decided to combine the straws to make a pan flute:

He blew on the red straw to make a sound. What would he have to do in order to make a sound that had a higher frequency and a lower amplitude?

Blow on the blue straw harder.

Blow on the yellow straw softer.

If you tried to speak through a old fashioned telephone like the one above, which one of the following would give you the clearest sound?

One with a 30cm red string in between the two cups.

One with a 40cm red string in between the two cups.

How can you tell that a 200 Hz sound has less energy than a 300 Hz sound?

The sand jumps higher on the speaker with a 300 Hz sound than with a 200 Hz sound.

A 200 Hz tuning fork makes a higher pitched sound that a 300 Hz tuning fork.

The sand doesn't move on the speaker with a 200 Hz sound.

The 200 Hz sound makes a wave with a smaller wavelength than the 300 Hz sound.

Ms Clarke uses a tuning fork to make a sound with a frequency of 200Hz. What does she need to do to make a louder sound with frequency of 150 Hz?

Strike a tuning fork that has longer arms with a greater force 

Strike a tuning fork that has longer arms with a smaller force

Strike a tuning fork that has shorter arms with a greater force

Strike a tuning fork that has shorter arms with the same force.
