NASA astronaut [Don Pettit] shared a short video from an experiment he performed on the ISS back in 2012, demonstrating the effects of sound waves on water in space. Specifically, seeing what happens ...

Sound is usually something we hear, not something we touch. But researchers at Virginia Tech have found a way to turn ...

A quiet revolution is taking shape in the world of physics, and it doesn’t rely on exotic particles or massive particle colliders. Instead, it begins with something much more familiar—sound.

This experiment demonstrates how water affects sound waves and pitch. You'll discover how different water levels create different musical notes and learn about the relationship between mass, vibration ...

I’m one of about 60 people lying on individual air mattresses, drifting along the surface of the pool inside the giant, glass Natatorium at the Dublin Wave Water Park and Aquatic Center. On this ...

Mechanical engineers have devised a diagnostic platform that uses sound waves to spin an individual drop of water up to 6000 revolutions per minute. These speeds separate tiny biological particles ...

Heat is not supposed to behave like this. In everyday life, warmth seeps and diffuses, spreading from hot to cold in a slow, ...

In a world buzzing with constant notifications, honking traffic, and daily stressors, the sound of waves offers a rare kind of sanctuary one that doesn’t just relax us, but actually resets the mind.

“Second sound is the hallmark of superfluidity, but in ultracold gases so far you could only see it in this faint reflection ...

At the start of my career, I used to do acoustic testing in an anechoic chamber where sound is not reflected as it gets absorbed. But the quietness of these chambers always got me thinking of how ...
