Student Reading:  Where Else Are Lasers Used to Detect Vibrations?


Refer to printouts of both of these articles to answer the questions below:  http://www2.le.ac.uk/news/blog/2017-archive/march/engineers-measure-big-ben2019s-bong

○ http://indianapublicmedia.org/amomentofscience/the-vibrating-moon/

University of Leicester researchers measure Big Ben’s bong


  1. How is this setup similar to the investigation you conducted in class to determine if the table was vibrating? How is it different?








The Vibrating Moon:

  1. What pattern would you expect to see in the motion of the laser dot over three years that was reflected back to Earth from the mirrors that astronauts left on the moon?







  1. What pattern would you expect to see in the motion of the laser dot over six years?

1.  Think about the sound that a bee, mosquito, or fly makes as it flies near your ear.  Each produces a buzzing sound as they fly. Then, go online and analyze one of the slow motion videos below of one insect flying to figure out what might be produced in these sounds as they are doing this.  Both videos are posted on youtube. The web addresses listed here are shortcuts to the original videos:

 

Then draw and annotate a “comic strip” view that shows the way that the wings are moving and changing shape over time. If you don’t have access to the video, then create a comic strip, that is a prediction of what you think you would see

 

     








3)  How does the way the wings of these insects make sound compare to the way that instruments make sound?
