Showing Results for sound it out

Find a mathematical relationship between the intensity of a sound wave and distance from the sound source. Use a pedometer and a sound level meter.

How good are humans at sound localization? Kids can try this cool science fair project idea to see how good their friends are at judging sound direction.

Every time a sound is produced it emits a sound wave. This experiment demonstrates how sound travels, using nothing more than a spoon and a string!

Learn about sound physics and do a survey experiment to explore the difference between sound and noise in this science project.

In this cool sound resonance experiment, learn about frequency and pitch, and use a tuning fork to calculate sound velocity in air.

What causes sound? Here's a simple science experiment that adds a visual element to the science of sound to help kids better understand this tricky concept.

In this activity, you'll send your kindergartener on a scavenger hunt to find sounds and create a sound recording. Here's how!

Let your young scientist explore a brave new world of sound with an experiment that just requires a handful of common household items.

This science fair project idea produces varying pitches of sound.

Science fair project that examines what causes thunder and why a thunderclap sounds so loud. How is lightening related to the creation of sound waves?

The objective of this experiment is to identify common materials that absorb sound waves with the greatest efficiency.

The objective of this science fair project idea is to determine if sound travels best through the air, water or a solid.

Air invisible; it doesn't make sounds; you can't pick it up and throw it. So how do we know it exists? Help your second grade scientist figure it out.

Determine the relationship between the speed of a sound and the temperature of the air it passes through.

Explore how sound waves are reflected and absorbed by producing echoes. Analyze which locations produce echoes.

This classic children's game demonstrates how sound travels through air vs. through a solid.

This classic children's game-connecting two cups with a string-demonstrates sound's ability to travel through air vs through a solid.

Find out whether we can create motion in a dish and as a result, create a wonderful and colorful show.

This science fair project idea produces sounds by creating vibrations using different objects.

Learn about how we localize objects and beings in space through sound and about monaural auditory mechanisms and binaural auditory mechanisms.

In this sound experiment children listen for differences as they tap on a bag of air, a bag of water, and a wooden block held up to their ears.

This experiment investigates whether there are certain sounds that affect men and women differently

Water can go from solid to liquid to gas...but how does popcorn go from kernel to snack? Invite your first grade scientist to find out.

How does a kazoo, the strings of a guitar, or the speaker of a radio make sound? The purpose of this science fair project is to show how vibration makes sound.

This project compares test subjects' responses to whining and other "attachment" and attention-getting sounds to determine which sounds are most distracting.

This science fair project idea shows how a vibrating object transfers energy to whatever it touches.

Build an electroscope, a simple device that measures static electricity, or the freely flowing electrical charges of the atmosphere!

Investigate which substances are most effective at removing salt from water.

It's the day before the test, and you still have a ton to memorize! Sound familiar? Test memorizing techniques to help yourself out next time.

This craft is an excellent way to learn about African-American history, and it also provides fine motor practice.
