Resolve this argument (glass breaking)

[sue bee 10+ year member]

Is there a hertz range that needs to be exceeded before glass can break? i.e. can a 0hz wave break glass? yes/no, numbers appreciated.

depends what kinda glass. Breaking a crystal glass is possible as proven by myth busters. And no it wouldnt be 0 hz

this was on mythbusters. a singer can break a wine glass with their voice. i belive it was 556 hz at 105 db.

and anything thing can break etc. at the right resonant frequency

Right, but my question is about that freq. Does it have to exceed a certain freq?

 

[azbass 5,000+ posts]

its natural resonant frequency. which depending on teh glass. size. shape, etc. will vary. we cant tell you.

0hz doesn't exist......it's moving 0 times...

ok, i don't need to know the exact freq...

just if it has to be greater than a certain freq.

We already told u, its not higher or lower then a certain frequency for all glass. each glass has its own frequecny.

ya mother****er i know that already. a 1hz tone will not break glass will it? so it must be higher than certain ****ing frequency. someone prove this with facts/numbers/research/knowledge.

u test it and come back to us.
