WOW ITS LATE. anyways this past week in orchestra we held a mini concert on camera for Jana Wang who is undergoing chemo in texas. The concert made me think about the physics reading and the concept of waves. When two violins play the same note, the peaks and troughs of the waves combine to make a wave of larger amplitude, thus making the sound louder. When an entire orchestra plays, the sound is very loud, and most theaters have special ceilings designed to make the sound louder or clearer to the audience. Once again, physics saves the day.
