Resonance

[schnappy]

Hey all,
So I've missed something big. Say the fundamental = 100 hz, and the first harmonic = 200 hz. What would be the difference between the sounds? I've heard from peers that it'll sound the same, just louder... disregarding phon's etc.

Basically, in terms of the course, how do we percieve these resonant frequencies in the real world? I'm a bit confused.

Increasing frequency just increases the 'pitch' of the sound in the real world. . .
Each human ear perceives different frequencies subjectively, hence the need for the phon curve

wah? I've never seen a question asking for relationship between different harmonics and phon curves =X Didn't even cross my mind

Yes i know this, but are there any special cases with resonant frequencies in pipes etc? In the real world... I'm really not sure what I'm asking, it's just something that I've heard people say that intensity increases or something like that?

you only increase intensity when you increase power, decrease the area or decrease distance from source. the phon line is needed to compare different frequencies

i thought the fundamental freq was the loudest ?
