A Wave in Time/Tune

01/19/2019 11:57 AM

Sound waves travel through this quantum world, and are picked up in the ear. Do frequencies pass into another dimention? And do they travel forever in a vacuum ?

GOOGLE the definition of acoustic attenuation.

How does 'energy loss' in media relate to a frequency traveling in a void?

Unless you're a 'gravity wave', in space no one can hear you scream (sound).

In space there lots of things to bounce off of and vibrate. The ' sound' that came from the big bang, must still be traveling at many frequencies, and making new ones along the way.

Sound is caused by atoms or molecules vibrating back and forth from their equilibrium position. It propagates in 3 dimensions through solids, liquids, or gases. It needs a material to propagate and so does not pass through a vacuum.

"Do frequencies pass into another dimension?"

"sound waves" and "frequency" are entirely different.

Frequency is just a number with no mass or energy.

A sound wave has the energy to move the medium through which it travels, at various frequencies.

Eventually, all the sound energy is dissipated and the acoustic wave disappears into nothing..

Lookup "sound wave,""sound wave decay"and "frequency."

Sound waves are longitudinal waves, i.e., the molecules move back and forth parallel to the direction of transmission. It consists of waves of high and low pressure that propagate through the medium.

Very nice. Among other things, Good waves create tunnels/tubes to explore the inner most pleasures of pure fun, and possibly other dimentions. Without them, it would be pretty boring, and flat lined, with no frequency and no harmony to find. After all, the search for perfection is what music is all about. If it swells, .....ride it.

It's a good quote from you awhile back, about squaring a circle, and impossible solutions. For me, it's a bit of fun perspective about a curiousity.

Why circle squaring is impossible. #38. Posted on 9-30-2011 at 11:03 pm. To be exact. But my question about other dimensions and 'waves', is not an impossible math problem.

Then why did you produce the quotation, which is out of context in the present discussion?

I have read and learned much from 10's, and 10's of thousands of posts from cr4. In my latest post/question, I am curious about 'waves' and other possible dimentions. The 'big bang started in a dimention, and is traveling at untold 'cycles per second'. To me, frequency is at the heart of why life survives, and 'sound waves (and other) have made earth the incredibly diverse place it is. There is not much need for sound outside of the planet. Except we did send Chuck Berry into the cosmos, and for the past 300 years or more, we have been in a good musical tune. I am learning, between you 'guys', you have thousands and thousands of answers and good answers, I have 2. The 'C' in cr4, to me, means curiously. ..... Solar Eagles post about the 'symphony ' of time really puts it in place for me. T Y

You said,"I have read and learned much from 10's, and 10's of thousands of posts from cr4."

You could have learned these same things and much more by using Google yourself.

This is just like asking why a mandarin orange cannot write, let alone appreciate, an enharmonic symphony? You obviously do not understand what is sound, the metric of frequency or anything at all in the quantum world.

To prove my point, here is the first sentence from my Wikipedia link:

In physics, a quantum (plural: quanta) is the minimum amount of any physical entity (physical property) involved in an interaction.

Can you paraphrase this sentence or explain at all how this relates to acoustics (the science of sound).

Another question then, acoustic sound energy at any frequency, dissipates in the medium. Since dark matter is part of the medium, and the eco of the big bang/bounce can be heard, is all mass, even at the quantum level, resonating, and creating more resonance? Even a minimum amount is still a physical entity.

if everything is moving in the quantum level, each with its own frequency and finding its own patterns, then the 'space' between must be even more important, and itself is the stability. the earth has hundreds of billions of frequencies that formed into some pretty good patterns, like 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34 55....etc. in music also, the space between is as important. an analogy could be like driving on a freeway, if you go too fast or too slow, it is very disruptive. for me, its all about time.

Please learn what frequency means. The way you are using the word is just babble.

Back in prehistory when I was growing up, a friend's father had the idea that with the right instrument he could capture sound waves from antiquity. That didn't sound right to me, but Carter's dad worked at Oak Ridge so I figured he was brilliant or at least smarter than I was. I guess he wasn't a physicist. Most people who worked at Oak Ridge back in the 1950s and 1960s weren't allowed to talk about what their jobs were -- they just said they worked at Oak Ridge and other people would say oh, the bomb plant.

My original post was "a wave in time". The Barton Oscillation Spectroscopic survey is proof that ancient 'sounds' do exist, and do travel. Also how they played a role in how the universe formed into patterns that are the 'maths'.

Paul Barton makes some very nice speakers. I own a pair and recommend them.

Nowhere in your original post are the words "Barton", "Oscillation" or "Spectroscopic survey" mentioned so how could we possibly know what you are trying to say. Maybe you are trying to discuss the Baryonic Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) that is still in the process of analysis.

Acoustic speakers or Dark Energy, the two are vastly different subjects. You show very little understanding of either.

Well I guess the big bang sound fits right in with a bomb plant. I think that your friends father well understood the sounds of antiquity if he thought about an instrument to capture the 'sounds'. I read a quote awhile back that fits this. "The universe is a song that responds while dancing" , maybe we are just dancing to the wrong beat, and as soon as we find the beat, we will be in phase, and ride the wave. Do you still keep in touch with Caters dad?
