yeah, right!? ;D LOL I almost didn't catch that pun - watching the How Farms Work channel was useful after all! xD

[@Caron_]

You know how they always do a pun in the last line, right? This time it was an auditory one because I am pretty sure it was intentional that "the right ear" in the last sentence mostly came from the right side of my headset. Wouldn't have noticed it without it. That is so next level.

[@IdiotToonz]

sorry but no. I tested it by shifting my right headphone and I still heard "the right ear".

If sound waves realese energy as heat, how many people screaming at an egg would it take to fry it?

[@romajimamulo]

More than could fit around an egg.

[@voidnerdvs7660]

What about ‘how many frogs’...

[@jeremydavis3631]

Hm... The waves would interfere with each other, which I imagine would reduce their effectiveness at heating the egg as compared to just summing their individual heat outputs. It might be barely possible with a single really loud ultrasonic speaker placed right next to the egg, but it seems unlikely. Or maybe multiple speakers with care taken to ensure they're all in phase with each other so the waves interfere constructively at the egg. It sounds like an amusing experiment, even if it gets no results. :)

[@Bl4ckDrg0n]

This is something very nice you can tell to someone who believes 5G causes coronavirus or cancer lol

[@fighteer1]

I have to think that the energy of the sound waves striking the egg would crush it long before their attenuation heat loss would even be measurable on that small a scale.

A great example of this in humans is whistle languages. Spanish, Turkish, and some other languages spoken in mountainous areas where speakers live far apart have whistle varieties. The sound travels for miles, bouncing off peaks and valleys to reach the other person :)

[@yazanalj1975]

1:11 they also release mechanical energy (sounds are vibrations after all, the more a sound vibrates per second, the more mechanical energy it releases) which is far more significant than the heat energy they lose/release

[@junting605]

Love these videos that don’t go on forever just to not teach anything. Short and sweet. Nice!

[@allstarpterosaur850]

And yet, there are wolf-like canids (painted wolves/African wild dogs, dholes) that communicate mainly by chirping and twittering.

[@EasyEvil]

Don't confuse dB and dBm. You can't just say both sounds are 90dB, because dB requires a reference. It's an amplification factor not an absolute reference whereas dBm has his reference = 1mW signal

[@sakanashoji]

Wow what a way to make learning about sound waves actually interesting, unlike school

[@falahati]

Instead of describing it as the speed in which you can hear it, you could have explained it easier by the "penetration potential". A low-frequency wave is better at penetrating and traveling through a medium (in this case, the air). This is why you can bang your hand on the table and it makes a loud sound but not speak through it as efficiently. High-frequency wave, however, tends to reflect easier instead of penetrating the medium.
