| Peter O'Rielly, Hilary Walsh Shhhhhhhh-2: Sound Absorption
Division: | International / None | Category: | Senior | Region: | Central Newfoundland | City: | St. Brendan's, NL | School: | St. Gabriel's All Grade | Abstract: | This project deals with sound absorption and several properties that effect a materials ability to absorb sound. Through experimentation we were looking to see the effects of altering a materials temperature, surface composition, and external shape on sound absorption. We were also looking to see if altering the frequency of a sound wave would have any effects on the materials ability to absorb the sound. |
