Reporting physics lecture by Prof.
Sylvanius p. Thompson, the London
Chronicle says: The youngsters who
attended we're shown how candle
could be blown out by sound. In the
first place. you want very powerful
tuning fork and resonator "a hollow
spheIe of brass). which Is exactly In
harmony with II. When the tuning
fork is struck 1t sets up waves of
sound The resonator, hearing the
note Immediately responds with sym
pathetic waves, which are strong
enough TO blow out candle placed
behind II. other experiments were
the forming of what are known as
Chladni sand figures on plates OF
metal by the influence of sound. The
most beautiful results. as Professor
Thompson explained. are obtained
with HAT plates of brass of uniform
thickness and of low note. When a
bow Is drawn along the edge so az to
set up vibrations in one part, there Is
dlscord with the vibrations of the
other parts, and the sound Immediate
ly assumes geometrical figures. The
greater the discord the better the pat
terms Hundreds of patterns can be
produced in this way on one plate.
Many demonstrations were made TO
show how, when things are tuned to
the same note. they vibrated In sym

and then stopped-but another tuning
