Every Musical Note is Associated with a Unique Frequency Indicating a Close Relationship between Music and Physics: A Study

Krish Gupta

Abstract: The attempt of this study is to reiterate the close relationship between music and physics. At the outset there seems to be no relationship between the two as they come from different genres. But on close analysis there is a functional relationship between musical instruments and the emission of sound waves. Besides sound waves, the study of amplitude and frequency is deeply embedded in the making of music. This paper looks closely at the association between the two.
