With clear text and easy-to-find supplies, these experiments invite readers to explore the scientific principles of sound, which include finding out what kinds of matter conduct sound, locating the sources of sound, and matching vibrations.
Kids love activities of all kinds, and projects about sound are the perfect way to engage them in learning crucial curricular concepts such as vibration, reflection (echoes!), volume and pitch, and ultrasound. This engrossing book introduces sound topics, clearly explaining the information learners need to know and the facts that will make them say, “Wow!” Then, step-by-step instructions encourage them to review concepts while completing a related activity, such as creating a sound cannon, making a tuned musical instrument, and much more. A final quiz allows reader to assess their understanding of sound facts.
This book describes how it’s possible to hear and feel sound, how sound travels and moves, as well as dimensions of space. It discusses making sounds and noises, waves, properties of sound and sound effects. It also includes sounds of music.
Can you feel the vibrations made by sounds? How does sound travel through air? Are two ears better than one? How do musical instruments produce sound? The exciting experiments in this book will unlock the mysteries of sound and music. Some will even give you ideas for your own science fair. Learn how to make musical notes, how we hear, and much more. All you need are some simple materials, most of which can be found around your home, school, or neighborhood. So grab a candle, milk carton, and radio and discover that physics is fantastic!
