To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Of course these blend gradually into each other. The length of the wave is also measured by the distance from the centre of one condensation to the centre of the next one. Now the quicker a string vibrates the more quickly will these pulses follow each other, and the diorter, at the ssune time, will be the length of each in- dividual wave. Upon these differences the pitch of a note in music depends. If a violin player wishes to produce a higher note, he shortens his string by pressing his finge...r on it ; he thereby augments the rapidity of vibration. If his point of pressure exactly halves the length of his string, he obtains the octave of the note which the string emits when vibrating as a whole. ' Boys are chosen as choristers to produce the shrill notes, men to produce the bass notes ; the reason being, that the boy's organ vibrates more speed- ily than the ipai's ; ' and the hum of a gnat is shriller than that of a beetle, because the smaller insect can send a greater number of impulses per second to the ear.
