Clucking Chicken Sound Activity - Vibration, Pitch, Volume, Energy, Amplify
In this lab, students investigate a device called a "clucking chicken". Through their experimentation, students look at how vibrations travel from particle to particle to create sound,
The investigation also looks at how varying the energy input to the system can also affect volume, as well as pitch.
Materials needed are disposable plastic cups, paperclips, string, and 1-2 cellulose sponges.
I've included a video explanation of the lab, as well as the student instructions. Unfortunately, w
