How does tube diameter influence frequency?
What did he say?!
-
Geometry (size and shape) influences natural frequency
-
Compare how easy it is to bend a larger diameter pipe versus a smaller diameter pipe
-
The smaller diameter pipe is easy to bend - it is "softer"
-
The larger diameter pipe is harder to bend - it is "stiffer"
-
Predict if the larger or smaller diameter chime will have a higher frequency
Make your prediction:
Can I try?
Smaller Diameter (0.5 inch or 1/2 in)
Small Diameter
00:00 / 00:12
Larger Diameter (0.75 inch or 3/4 inch)
Large Diameter
00:00 / 00:14
