Question

There are many kinds of musical instruments. Some musical instruments are hard to make. But there is a special one that you can make easily. To make this special instrument, you will need eight tall glasses, all the same size, water, and a pencil. 1. Take the first glass and put a little water into it. The water should just cover the bottom of the glass. 2. Put water into the next glass. This time put in a little more water. 3. Put a little more water in each of the other glasses. The fourth glass should be half-filled, and the last glass should be nearly full. 4. Place the glasses in the order you filled them. 5. Tap the first glass with your pencil just where the water line is. Listen to the sound the glass makes. 6. Now tap the second glass at the water line. This sound should be a little lower than the first. 7. Tap the rest of the glasses and listen to the sounds they make. The more water a glass has, the lower its sound will be. 8. Now you are ready to play music. Tap the glasses in any order you want. You may want to tap a glass more than once. Make up a song or two. You can play music for your family and friends. Question What would happen if you used more than eight glasses for this instrument? Answer options with 4 options 1. All of the notes you played would sound lower. 2. You could play more notes and maybe play more kinds of songs. 3. You'd have to find another person to help play the instrument. 4. You'd have to use at least two pencils to tap out the notes.

Answer 1

If more than eight glasses were used for the special instrument, more notes and songs could be played, but the notes would still sound lower.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks what would happen if you used more than eight glasses to make the special instrument described. By following the instructions given, we can see that the different sounds produced by tapping the glasses are based on the amount of water they contain. The more water a glass has, the lower its sound will be. Therefore, if you used more than eight glasses, you would be able to play more notes and maybe even play more kinds of songs, but all of the notes you played would still sound lower.
