CHICKEN SOUNDS FROM A CUP!

You will require

* A plastic drinking cup

* Yarn or cotton string (nylon string won't function admirably)

* 1 paper clasp

* Paper towel

* A nail

* Scissors

* Water

What to do

Cut a bit of yarn around 20 inches (40 cm) long.

Request that a grown-up utilize the nail to painstakingly punch a hold in the focal point of the base of the cup.

Tie one finish of the yarn to the center of the paper cut.

Push the opposite finish of the yarn through the opening in the cup and draw it through as appeared in the image.

Get a bit of paper towel about the size of a dollar note, at that point crease it once and get it soggy in the water.

Presently it's a great opportunity to make some clamor! Hold the cup solidly in one hand, and wrap the soggy paper towel around the string close to the cup. While you crush the string, pull down in short snaps with the goal that the paper towel firmly slides along the string. In the event that all goes well – you hear a chicken!

How can it work?

This is a case of how a sounding board functions. The vibrations from the string would be practically quiet without the cup, yet when you include the cup, it spreads the vibrations and enhances them (makes them more intense.) Pianos and music boxes use wood to go about as a sounding board to make the instrument more intense.

MAKE IT AN EXPERIMENT

The venture above is a DEMONSTRATION. To make it a genuine trial, you can attempt to respond to these inquiries:

1. What kinds of string or yarn makes the most intense sound? Which ones make the calmest?

2. Does the size of the cup influence the volume of the sound?

3. Attempt materials other than a paper towel to check whether it influences the volume of the sound.
