Studying the vibrational modes of organ pipes Introduction Sound is a vibration that arises from a mechanical wave of pressure and displacement, through a medium like air or water (Berg and Stock, 23). The reception and perception of these waves by the brain is referred to as sound. On the other hand, acoustics deals with the study of these mechanical waves in matter (pg. 40). In this experiment, the organ pipe is the main target of discussion. This is a sound producing wind instrument that resonates at a specific pitch when pressurized air is driven through it.
