This video answered a question I've had for a while: why do musical frequencies sound similar but visual frequencies don't look similar? That's because musical frequencies aren't just normal waves, they're standing waves. I bet normal sound frequencies wouldn't sound similar either. But standing waves are different. And our ears/brains are capable of distinguishing these waves, and recognizing their overtones. Thanks so much

I already want to stop watching after 30 seconds because she listed strings, winds, and brass, saxophones are not brass instruments they are a woodwind and it is wrong to call woodwinds wind instruments because wind is not only limited to just woodwinds it also includes brass. If you want to educate us make sure you get the first 30 seconds of the video correct about basic music knowledge -

helloo all.
i'm a physics students, and a part time musician.
i'm making my seminar project about the relationship between music and physics.
if anyone can help me by sending good videos or papers, i would appreciate that.
thank you: D

The video 8: 38-8: 43 shows a vibrating air tube (pipe) open on one end while fixed on the other. I think only odd number harmonics are allowed, so the second label should actually be -third harmonic-. I think this is an error.

I have a question regarding the closed pipes. In your diagram, it shows 2nd harmonic. I thought that closed pipes only go in odd numbers so wouldn't it be 1st, 3rd, and 5th harmonic?

since the trumpet can get even numbered harmonics and is closed at one end by your lips, what acts as the other closed end? the mouthpiece taper or the bell?

Fun fact: Trumpets, trombones, French horns, and tubas - you make a -pffht- sound with your lips and these turn that into beautiful music.
