Not sure if the word allaso is the ancient Greek word for change but the current/modernversion is spelled allakso. I wonder who came up with this word
Holy shit, I've been wondering about this for years. HOWEVER I always notice the effect when I clink the the rim of the cup with my spoon, and there are no dissolving crystals in the tea. I've always assumed that the effect was caused by the tea (having been circularly stirred) gradually losing its angular momentum and therefor not climbing so high on the sides of the cup. I'm too lazy but somebody else immediately investigate this before it's too late! The future of humanity is at stake!
A ver si entiendo tu malestar, resulta que a medida que golpeas mas fuerte la taza, su sonido aumenta. No creés que esa prueba es una estupidez y que solo es para perder el tiempo? Creo que te puedo dar otra prueba similar, llamala el efecto Pablo. Golpeate los nudillos contra la mesa cada vez mas fuerte y vas a ver que cada vez te duelen mas. Si querés patentala.
flaco no cazas ni media vos, si te pones a ver videos de efectos fisicos no esperes ver un capitulo de los caballeros del zodiaco ni te imaginas la cantidad de fisicos q habran estudiado este fenomeno, aparte que tan importante sera TU tiempo para cualquiera! seguro q lo gastas a pura paja jajaj
To complicate matters, if you stir the liquid, the pitch gets low again and starts the rise all over again. The pitch rise continues after the rotation of the liquid appears to have stopped. The stirring trick will work repeatedly. Any explanation has to take this into account. You'd think that the dissolving and release of bubbles would only work for a short time.
The vibration of the tapping allows molecules to interlock thus changing its resonant characteristics. This happens without tapping with a solution of alcohol and water (the interlocks). Stirring the coffee unlocks the molecules lowering the resonant frequency. Very tight crystals generally have higher resonant frequencies.
try this...just after pour hot water to a glass with coffee powder, stirr it then drink it till finish...try to slap your stomach at regular interval..sounds nice too..aaaaarghhhh!
After a while, the dissolving crystals in the powder have finished dissolving and the change in pitch stops. As crystals of sugar, salt and other substances dissolve, they form ionic lattices in the liquid as the concentration changes. The effect changes the speed of sound in a liquid.. which changes the resonance, thus changing the pitch.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
probably the sound didn't get a chance to "fall off" and each tap added each "peak" to each other until the pitch just went higher & higher..... ??? :/
dunno. i never took physics in H.S. and i wasn't great in my audio classes in college LMFAO i was better in video lol
i believe its to do with the speed of sound in the liquid changing as the new substance is absorbed into the liquid. and the % coffee in this case increases, the speed of sound changes through that medium.
I think the sound that is being provoked by tapping the spoon against the cup could be in a way acknowledging the slowing down/speeding up of the molecules
Cool. I wonder what effects the interplay between this phenomenon and doing the resonating of a crystal glass lip thing could do if done at the same time.
Noticed this for years. You DONT have to tap the bottom of the cup. You will notice the same sound change if the spoon rubs against the inside of the cup. I am sure the pitch increases as the cup absorbs heat from the hot liquid slightly.
Just tried it out for myself. Of course the pitch did not change when there were only hot water in the cup. For the allassonic effect to occur, I had to add cappuccino powder. I also could change the pitch of the sound back to its initial, low level by stirring again.
Now tr5939's bubble theory seems to make even more sense to me. It would also explain the 'beer and salt' experiment.

the powder traps small bubbles of air in the liquid. The bubbles start off well distributed and small, and with time rise to the top and coalesce into bigger bubbles and burst at the top.
Air bubbles slow the (apparent) speed of sound through water (by reflection, less transmission and a lower inherent mach speed). So when you tap the cup, a pulse of sound goes very quickly up and down the height of the cup. These oscillations are at a frequency that we hear as a sound pitch.
As the bubbles settle, the apparent speed of sound of the liquid increases, tending to the speed in pure water, so the pulse can do more oscillations per second = Hz = higher pitch.
Also, if you put more liquid in the cup, the length of water the pulse has to travel increases, so the number of oscillations per second = Hz decreases. This accounts for musical water glasses (like a xylophone), pitched by varying amounts of water.
how many times do you tap the bottom of the cup before it breaks, spewing hot coffee all over the place?

My guess is that the pitch changes due to the amount of dissolved versus undissolved solids in the liquid.

I've observed this effect before with othere stuff like cold beverages, as well as hot.
I wonder if the effect is caused by the molecules of the container speeding up, or slowing down with heat, and cold applied to them.
Fascinating.

"agree...due to the expansion of the ceramic object"
Why would the pitch of the sound increase when the ceramic cup gets warmer and expands?
Have you read the infobox? The effect is said to occur with cold beer, too.
Read tr5939's comment. I don't know if he hit the nail on the haid, but his theory seems to be more though-out.
