For this lab we tested the different components of sound given different situations. We test bands for thickness, length, tightness, and other components that may effect the sound. As maria and I worked, we found lots of different reasons that would effect the way things sound. During our tests, we found that the thicker a material, the more dull or low the sound would turn out. The thick and short strings we tested made sounds we could hardly hear. And on the other hand, the longer and thinner the rubber band, the sharper and higher the sound would be. When we tested the long, the thin, and the stretchy bands, they made much better and louder sounds. Also, tightness effected the sound. We found that the tighter a band, the sharper the sound and the looser the band, the duller and less prominent the sound. This tells me a lot about how sound travels and how the medium can effect it so much. This tells a lot about ow sound would travel through water, as oppose to wood or rock. Knowing this is going to help me make a lot more predictions in labs to come
