Question

Explain why if we strike a steel tumbler with metal spoon lightly we hear a fible but if we hit the tumbler hard the sound is heavy?

Answer 1

Answer:

So, when the amplitude of the vibration is more, the sound heard will be more, and if the amplitude is low, the sound will be low. Therefore, when a steel glass is struck lightly with a metal spoon, a feeble or a light sound is made. However, if it is struck hard, then a louder sound will be heard.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

This is because the amplitude of vibrations is small when we beat the spoon lightly and so feeble sound is produced but when it is beaten with force then, amplitude of vibrations is large, so loud sound is produced.
