    What does the area under a volume vs time graph represent?

    I don't think there is a way I can apply average volume in the project I'm doing, but it's interesting to know that the integral could be useful. Thanks for your reply.

    What does the area under a volume vs time graph represent?

    I actually do have the equation for the derivative (dv/dt). For some reason it didn't occur to me to use that graph instead. The equation I have models the change in water volume caused by the tides (increasing water height), so I am assuming the area under the derivative would give me the total...

    What does the area under a volume vs time graph represent?

    Homework Statement I have a function showing the volume of water in a bay at different times in the day, and I want to know what the area under this curve would represent (if it represents anything meaningful). I know how to integrate, so that isn't a problem. Homework Equations I am...

    Is there a way to find the velocity of air in a flute?

    The link gave me a better understanding of how harmonics work, but I didn't find anything that answers my original question. I think I'll have to change my topic, which is really frustrating because this relationship was just supposed to be a small part of it and the rest of it worked well. I've...

    Is there a way to find the velocity of air in a flute?

    So the fundamental pitch is still present, and a faster airstream makes the harmonics more audible. However, it is my understanding that the harmonics are still different frequencies than the fundamental pitch. I'm assuming the only way to measure the airspeed required to produce these higher...

    Is there a way to find the velocity of air in a flute?

    When I blow with faster air on the same fingering, it produces the harmonics of the note (higher pitches). I'm trying to find an equation to describe the different air velocities needed to produce each note (I wasn't originally thinking about harmonics, but it's the same idea.) Is it not...

    Is there a way to find the velocity of air in a flute?

    Homework Statement I am working on a math investigation which involves the physics of the flute and I can't move on unless I find an equation for the change in required velocity of the air stream to produce different frequencies. I have a feeling I might have to abandon this idea and do...

    What fields of science am I interested in pursuing in university?

    Hello! My name is Elena and I am a Canadian high school student enrolled in the International Baccalaureate program. I plan to study science in university, probably chemistry but I am also curious about computer science. The sciences I am taking right now are physics and chemistry.
