a) See here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BE827gwnnk4
b) It takes 300 Hz to break a wine glass
c) Speed of sound in air = 340 m/s
d) Wavelength = 340/300 = 1.13 metres
e) Speed of sound in glass = 3900 m/s
f) Wavelength = 3900/300 = 13 metres
g) Both the wavelengths in (d) and (f) are much greater
than the size of the glass
So can you explain what is actually going on here? How does a wavelength bigger than the object itself appear to setup modes in the glass of a shorter wavelength? What is actually breaking the glass: the originating frequency or higher harmonics?
If it is a higher harmonic then presumably we can also break the glass at that driving frequency also? Has this ever been demonstrated?
