ACOUSTIC RADIATION TEST
|
|
USING AND ELECTRIC GUITAR
|
|
|
|
Acoustical radiation forces have been shown to be able to levitate
|
|
objects. The utilization of this force for the purpose of levitation
|
|
is primarily dependent on the lower frequency sonics in a longitude
|
|
mode; they provide a lifting force in the form of pressure wave
|
|
harmonics.
|
|
|
|
As shown in Figure 1, when the first fret E-chord on a guitar was
|
|
struck through a distortion amplifier a state of motion was induced
|
|
and minimal levitation sustained for up to 5 seconds at
|
|
approximately 25 watts.
|
|
|
|
Higher frequency chords gave only vibrational responses. The
|
|
distorted oscillation of the guitar strings can induce propulsion
|
|
due to the pulse of many sonic waves set in motion.
|
|
|
|
In one test, shown in Figure 2, we proved that the harmonic
|
|
frequencies of a guitar can indeed lift a speaker as high as a
|
|
centimeter above the ground.
|
|
|
|
We have also discovered that the lower the frequency notes, less
|
|
amplification was required to sustain levitation. This suggests
|
|
that levels below hearing in the 30 Hz range may produce the
|
|
greatest results at lower amplification.
|
|
|
|
On a flat surface, motion usually goes in the direction of highest
|
|
weight offset. The weight tilts the speaker to change the direction
|
|
of pressure force. In order to gain sufficient lift, high
|
|
amplification is required. I am unable to conduct adequate
|
|
experimentation due to the overheating of speaker coils! No
|
|
complete analysis of the situation has been preformed.
