  • Science!

  • the vaccum sucked in all sound particles

  • Complete vacuum may cause the jar to collapse. Also, It's not that easy to have a complete vacuum. More over, you can hear it because the base that bell is sitting on allow the sound waves to pass through it.

  • this should not be possible, if you got a complete vaccum then you wouldnt be able to hear it because the sound would be lacking a medium

  • @rcboatdriver1234 It's probably not a perfect vacuum.

  • Can i get my wife into this jar?

  • did it died?

  • You should have isolated the bell mechanicly also!

    Then you really can not hear a thing (almost).

  • it never fails to amaze me how you can make anything appear magical in a vacuum.

  • i hear it

  • Well spotted. The vacuum created is not total - probably around 95% using that particular pump - hence some of the sound can still get through.

  • @QuantumBoffin also the bell is still in physical contact with some parts of the container, however well sound insulated, so the vibration may travel out via different mediums

  • Fantastic, very useful for my lesson with year 8
