This excellent web site explains what sound is and how humans perceive it through the ear. Take an interactive journey through the human ear to see how the ear collects and interprets sound. Use the SoundScene applet to organize a scene to help you understand Auditory Scene Analysis. In the Sound Lab you can see and hear sounds and their effects--check it out!

One way to reduce sound pollution is to put some materials on the way to absorb sound energy. We made some hollow cylinders out of cement & concrete. We mixed different materials with concrete like shells and built similar cylinders out of both materials. We analyzed the data by comparing different materials

Music is the sounds and emotions. You can measure sounds, illustrate them on charts find the rules which are describing them. But this is not the only role which Mathematics plays in Music. This old part of science is creating the musical pieces as well. Within the SoundFactoryProject our team is proudly presenting the mathematical world of sounds

This page deals with the physics of string, woodwind, and brass instruments. We will show how sound is produced by the various sources, such as the pulling of bows across strings and the blowing of reeds and mouthpieces. It explains the basic principles of sound waves and explains the different types of sound.

The Page is determined to introduce people to music by looking at it in a diferent perspective than the usual, by looking at it in a scientific way and showing it in a cartoon mode, this way you learn while you have fun.

"Music In Science" was created to explore the relationship between music and science. Students focused on the relationship between sounds and their environment.

The sound of human speech has often been compared to music. It is commonly mimicked by various musical instruments. The subtleties of voice have long been inspirational to musicians' playing styles, and the sound of the human speaking has been revered as beautiful by such geniuses as Walt Whitman and F. Scott Fitzgerald.

For centuries, light and sound have captivated the minds of the inquisitive. Early philosophers and scientists studied light and sound and began to associate their behavior with that of waves. In Wave Express, you will learn about the early theories of light and sound and the recognition of their wavelike properties. We will delve into the basics of what a wave is and how it travels. This site is designed to give you the flexibility that cannot be captured in a textbook

Come and learn about waves! This site covers all kinds of waves including light, sound, electromagnetic and water. Find out how we hear or how our eyes work. Or would you rather know about Maxwell's Equations? Take a trip through our lessons, filled with illustrations, diagrams, and tables to help you understand the many different kinds and aspects of waves. Then try some of the activities at home, or try the "Resonance in the Air Column" applet to test what you have learned.

Sound is necessary in our daily use but many of us are curious and often ask questions like how sounds are formed,what actually are sounds......Therefore this project will answer these questions to satisfy the viewers'curiousity.This project also show sharing and collaboration by the successful of this project and let the viewers know that sharing and collaboration lead to success.

This site is an excellent resource for teachers of music or physics. The site explains how music works and what it "looks" like by introducing the topic of sound waves. A virtual lab is provided to explore harmonics, waves, and resonance. Other experiments you can do at school or home are included.

Listen to the amazing sounds of natural radio waves: tweeks, whistlers, and chorus. Some are created by natural conditions such as lightning, the aurora borealis, and other phenomena. Others may come from outer space! Normally in a range you cannot hear, you need a special piece of equipment to receive and change them for your listening pleasure; directions for assembling your own "INSPIRE" ("Interactive NASA Space Physics Ionospheric Radio Experiments") kit are here.
