If *all* of the air was removed, the bell would vibrate if it was rung, but there would be no air to carry the vibrations to the jar walls, so there would be no sound. If only part of the air was removed, the sound would be poorly carried and would not have the same amplitude (volume).

(At around 1/100,000th of an atmosphere, low frequency sounds like a bell will no longer be carried because the molecules are farther apart than the wavelength. This is considered a near vacuum.)

What is a glass straw with a bell on the bottom used for?

A glass straw with a bell on the bottom is typically used as a decorative or novelty item rather than for practical drinking purposes.

When a current flows through an electric bell what will happen to the armature?

When a current flows through an electric bell, it creates a magnetic field that causes the armature, attached to a spring, to be attracted towards the electromagnet. This movement causes the armature to strike the bell, producing a ringing sound.


Why must the bell jars be sealed with petrolium jelly on the glass plates?

Sealing bell jars with petroleum jelly on the glass plates is essential to create an airtight environment, preventing the entry of moisture and air. This helps maintain stable conditions within the jar, which is crucial for experiments involving gas exchange or moisture-sensitive materials. Additionally, the seal minimizes contamination risks, ensuring accurate and reliable experimental results.

Describe the bell in a bell jar with vacuum experiment?

A bell jar is a piece of laboratory equipment used for creating vacuums.[1] It can be similar in shape to a bell, and can be manufactured out of a variety of materials (ranging from glass to different types of metals). A bell jar is placed on a base which is vented to a hose fitting, which can be connected via a hose to a vacuum pump. By pumping the air out of the bell jar, a vacuum is formed.
