Work Description
If science sounds fun to you, Sound Science will be a blast! With 46 ear-opening experiments, this book tunes into the surprises of sonic science. Have you ever wondered how come two ears are better than one, or why your voice doesn't sound the same on tape? This book lets you hear the reasons. You'll even sleep more soundly once you read why some people snore. Sound Science pitches in to help you: learn the secrets of ventriloquism, make a piano play without touching the keys, find the "sweet spot" on your baseball bat, test what kind of music plants like best, play "Jingle Bells" on recycled bottles, build a telegraph to send Morse code messages. Each project has simple directions using ordinary objects, a complete explanation of the science behind the sounds, and suggestions for further experiments. Sound Science isn't just noise; it's a fun way to develop a sound mind! - Back cover.
