What sound does a rubber band make?
If you pluck a rubber band, the rubber band moving back and forth produces twanging sounds. Unless something vibrates , there can be no sound. Sound travels when a string vibrates, it makes molecules of gases in the air next to it vibrate. The molecules squeeze together, then spread apart.
How does rubber affect sound?
The longer length of the rubber band makes a low, long, heavy sound and vibrates at a slower rate of frequency. The shorter length of rubber band makes a high, short sound and vibrates at a faster rate or frequency.
How does a rubber band thickness affect its sound?
The thickness of the rubber band changed the tone of the sound you heard when you plucked it. The thinner strings on a guitar make a higher-pitch sound because they can vibrate more quickly than the thicker ones.
