Homemade Instrument

in science class we were given an assignment to create an instrument that had different pitches. I made an instrument out of pvc pipe, tape and my trombone’s mouthpiece. It sounds very interesting but it works and completes the assignment. We were going to make two but one of them cracked but we had a backup they don’t sound the same or look the same but they are close.

Echo Prevention Project

In Math and Science class we were given an assignment to come up with an idea to help prevent the loud echo in one of the staffs office and then present it to our teachers. Our idea was to put acoustic paneling on one of the walls so that it would prevent the echo by absorbing the sound waves. I learned that acoustic paneling can absorb echo therefore creating a way to prevent the echo in that room. We just finished presenting so we will find out how we did soon.
