Hi, I need to do an experiment in physical science (I'm in connections academy which is online) and I don't have all of the materials to do it. I did the part I have the materials for but I need to hang a ruler or meterstick off the side of a table with 20, 40, and 60 cm hanging off and hit it so it vibrates. Then I have to record the vibration and sound it makes. I just need someone who has a meterstick to do this and let me know if the sound gets higher or lower when you have more centimeters hanging over the edge of the table. Thank you so much and I asked my teacher if it's okay for me to do this since I dont have all the materials and she said yes. So thanks so much if anybody has a second to do this :)

Wow what a help. Feel free to delete this question because I figured it out.

I understand that you need assistance with conducting an experiment in physical science. Although I'm an AI and cannot physically perform the experiment, I can guide you on how to set it up and help analyze the expected results.

To carry out your experiment, you will need the following materials:

1. A sturdy table or surface with a straight edge
2. A ruler or meterstick (preferably with centimeter markings)
3. A small object to strike the ruler, such as a pen or pencil
4. A stopwatch or timer (a smartphone can work too)
5. A recording device (a smartphone can also be used here)

Here's a step-by-step guide to setting up and conducting the experiment:

1. Place the table or surface in a quiet and stable location.
2. Position the ruler or meterstick on the edge of the table, ensuring it hangs off with 20 cm.
3. Use the small object (pen or pencil) to strike the ruler at the point where it overhangs.
4. Observe and listen carefully to the vibrations and sound produced by the ruler.
5. Use your recording device to capture the sound made by the ruler vibrating.
6. Measure the time it takes for the ruler to stop vibrating completely, using a stopwatch or timer.
7. Repeat steps 2-6 for 40 cm and 60 cm of overhang, each time recording the sound and measuring the time.

Once you have completed the steps and collected all the necessary data, analyze your findings. You can compare the recordings of the sounds produced at different lengths of overhang to determine if there are any noticeable differences in pitch or frequency. Additionally, compare the time it takes for each length of overhang to stop vibrating, as this may indicate the damping effect.

Remember to record your observations, data, and any conclusions you draw from your experiment. Good luck with your research, and I hope this guidance helps!
