Amazing Resonance Experiment!

Shows how when placing sand on a vibrating surface, different sound frequencies cause the sand to arrange into distinct geometric shapes.

Vibration & Sound: Make Sprinkles Dance

Shows how to make sprinkles “dance” using sound waves.

How to See Sound Science Experiment

Shows how sound vibrations can make objects move, demonstrated by rice bouncing on a plastic-covered bowl when exposed to the sound of a metal pan being hit next to it.

Three ways to see sound

Shows simple experiments that visualize sound vibrations: using a tuning fork in water to create splashes, placing rice on a vibrating surface to observe movement, and utilizing a balloon to feel sound vibrations.

This is what happens when you vibrate salt at high frequencies

Shows simple experiments that visualize sound vibrations: using a tuning fork in water to create splashes, placing rice on a vibrating surface to observe movement, and utilizing a balloon to feel sound vibrations.

Use sound waves to levitate objects

Shows acoustic levitation, a phenomenon where ultrasonic sound waves generate regions of high and low pressure in the air, allowing small objects to be suspended without physical contact.
