Me and my friend have a discussion about sound.
What are the physics behind it and why cant I find something about it on Wikipedia
My friend says (this is him writing):
he has heard, that sound has the ability to create form out of matter. He has seen a video-clip of soundwaves being sent through some form of material (fluid metal?). The claim of the clip was that the planets might have formed this way. Through the movement of soundwaves, that is energy passing from molecule to molecule. This would of course require that this can happen in space, but there is no sound in space. My friend says that this is just a matter of there not being enough matter around to create a resonance or something like that (he's not very specific) and that gravity might well be an effect of sound (which is the transfer of energy).
btw in the clip this was related to the world being created by god by the word, and by my friend to religious sects from 500 bc (+/- a couple o thousand years probably) which spoke of god as The Word and even of Platon's philosophy most likely being linked with these beliefs. Though talking of Ideas rather than Words, and even some egyptian thing about soundmagic.
(I'm taking over again I just have the idea that the matter was to thinly dispersed in the start of the solar system to be influenced by sound and so never could be drawn together to planets.
Which is right?
