Saxophone

2007-06-04T15:17:05Z

Kukanani:

The saxophone was invented by [[Adolphe Sax]] in 1841. He was a Belgian clarinetist. The saxophone was invented as an intermediate instrument between woodwind and brass. Originally, Sax invented 14 different saxophones.<ref>Pearson, Bruce. "''Standard of Exelence Comprehensive Band Method Book 1 Eb Alto Saxohone''." San Diego: Niel A. Kjos Music Company, 1993. 48.</ref>
There are five types of saxophones in use today: E''b'' [[Soprano Saxophone]], B''b'' [[Alto Saxophone]], E''b'' [[Tenor Saxophone]], [[C Melody Saxophone]] and E''b'' [[Baritone Saxophone]]. Because the note fingering is the same on all types of saxophones, it is easy for a saxophonist to switch from one sax to another.

The '''Conn-O-Sax''' was a special form of saxophone created by the [[Conn]] company in the past. It is no longer in production.

French Horn

2007-06-02T01:03:01Z

Kukanani:

The '''French Horn''' (or the abbreviated name, Horn) is a musical instrument in the brass family. It has the longest piping in the brass family, excluding obscure instruments. It also has one of the largest ranges of brass instruments, rivaling that of the [[trumpet]] or [[trombone]].

== Keys ==
French Horns generally come in three musical keys:

*Concert F, making the Concert Bb scale an F scale,
*Concert Bb, making the Concert Bb scale a C scale, and
*Concert Eb, making the Concert Bb scale a G scale.

== Range ==
An experienced horn player on an F French Horn can easily play from a Pedal-Tone F (directly below the bottom line of the bass clef) to a high F (far above the top of the treble clef's top line). This gives you an idea of it's range.

Light

2007-06-02T00:59:10Z

Kukanani:

'''Light''' can refer to [[electromagnetic]] [[radiation]] of any [[wavelength]], or to EM radiation of visible wavelengths <ref>Wavelengths of EM spectrum <i>usbyte.com</i> [http://www.usbyte.com/common/approximate_wavelength.htm]</ref> ; that stimulate the [[organ]]s of sight, having for normal human vision wavelengths ranging from about 3900 to 7700 [[ångstrom]]s (390 to 780 [[nm]]), violet has the shortest wavelength and red has the largest.
It travels at the [[speed of light]]: about 186,300 [[mile]]s (300,000 kilometres) per second.

EM radiation is a disturbance in an electric field, it consists of an energy particle called a "[[photon]]", a photon carries no electric charge and is massless, but since all energy is attracted by gravitation, light rays will bend near planets and stars.

Debate over whether light was a wave, or consists of particles was finally solved when [[quantum physics]] revealed all particles have wavelengths, but this is not generally noticeable in normal matter.

The EM spectrum consists of the following types of photon radiation (in order of increasing wavelength): [[microwaves]], [[gamma ray]]s, [[x-ray]]s, [[ultraviolet light]], [[visible light]], [[infrared light]] and [[radio waves]].

The [[Michelson-Morley experiment]] proved that the speed of light (and everything else that is massless) will always be measured by an observer to be the same, in every frame of reference, no matter how fast the source or the observer are moving, this gives rise to the [[theory of relativity]].

As with any wave. wavelength times frequency equals the speed of a light wave.

In the Biblical creation God created light on the first [[day]]; [[God]] said ''Let there be light,'' and there was light<ref>[[Genesis]] 1:3</ref>.

== Young Earth Creationist View Regarding Starlight ==
In regards to the question of how one can see [[star|starlight]] from millions of light years away, [[Young earth creationism|young earth creationist]] [[scientist]]s commonly mention several things. First, these scientists assert that the [[Big Bang Theory]] has a star light-travel time problem and cite the work of Dr. [[Charles W. Misner]]. <ref>http://www.answersingenesis.org/creation/v25/i4/lighttravel.asp</ref> Secondly, creationist [[Barry Setterfield]] has proposed that the speed of light was faster in the past. <ref>http://www.answersingenesis.org/docs2002/0809_cdk_davies.asp</ref> Thirdly, the work of young earth creationist scientist Dr. [[John Hartnett]] proposes an alternative, creationist view, by theorizing the Earth was trapped in a time-dilation field caused by extremely strong gravitation during the first few days of creation, from Earth's point of view, while billions of years passed for the rest of the universe.
He attributes the field, it's removal and the continued balance in our solar system (after the field was removed) to divine intervention. <ref>http://www.answersingenesis.org/tj/v17/i2/cosmology.asp</ref>
