  • Needle playing a record. Colored scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the needle (stylus) of a record player in a groove on a record. A record is used to store sound. It is produced by a machine with a head which vibrates in time to the sound being recorded. This cuts a groove in the record which varies according to the vibrations. A needle can then reproduce these vibrations as it runs along the groove and these, when amplified, produce the original sound.  This is a stereo record.  The needle in contact with the record is a LP needle, or a long play needle designed for stero use.  The spair needle pointing up is a 78 RMP needle - not the different angles.  This record is designed for 45 RPM.

  • Sand patterns formed from vibrating a square sheet of thin metal. These formations, known as Chladni patterns, occur when fine particles, such as grains of sand or salt, form a unique pattern in response to pure tone vibrations such as musical notes. This sand was placed on a metal plate that was vibrated at different frequency. When the plat is driven at a resonate frequency the sand grains will collect in the nodes. Chladni Oscillations are a standing wave pattern visualized by vibrating a metal plate. The nodes and anti-nodes of the oscillation are made visible my placing sand grains on the plate. This technique for visualizing sound waves was discovered by Ernst Florens Friedrich Chladni (1756 - 1827) also know for his work with the speed of sound.

  • A special compression driver speaker is mounted to the left of the glass.  When the speaker is set to the resonance of the glass - vibrations will constructively interfere with each other until the glass breaks.  This demonstration takes a special speaker, a frequency generator, and an amplifier that can drive the speaker at 120 watts.  The action is captured with a high speed flash operating at 1/20,000th of a second. This image is one out of a set of two showing before and during the glass shattering..

  • Here a small dish of water is mounted on a speaker and vibrated at different frequencies. At specific frequencies standing waves are created. The frequency is dependent on the depth of the water, the size of the dish, and speed of waves in the liquid. Many modes of oscillation are possible in the same dish of water. To get better lighting black ink was added to the water

  • Vibrating strings on a base electric guitar. When plucked, the string vibrates at a specific frequency, which determines the pitch of the note. The vertical lines on the fretboard of the guitar mark where fingers should be placed to shorten or lengthen the vibrating part of the string. Shortening the string produces a note with a higher pitch, lengthening it lowers the note. The image was collected with a digital camera with a fast rolling shutter.

  • A male American Toad (Bufo americanus)making vocalizations for mating. The male has an air sack that inflates to make the charasteric call.  The female will respond to an attractive call.  This image was taken the last  week of April in Upstate New York.  The toads live in woodland forest and only return to swamp land to mate and lay their eggs.  The toads only mate for about three days.

  • A .22 caliber bullet is fired from a rifle.  The schlieren optical system images different air pressures with different colors of light.  The clear bow wave in front of the bullets shows that the bullet is moving faster than the speed of sound.  The exact velocity of this supersonic bullet can be calculated from measurements of the bow wake angle.   This image freezes the motion by using a high speed flash with a duration of  1/2,000,000th of a second.

  • This is a turbine blade that is responsible for making a jet engine work.  This particular blade is from a fighter jet and routinely travels though the compression stage of the jet engine traveling faster than the speed of sound as it rotates.  Due to the hot environment inside the engine, the turbine blades have to be specially engineered out of state of the art materials.  Titanium, and titanium alloys are routinely used for turbine blades.
