    I had the chance to spend a day at the Laboratory of Mechanics and Acoustics of Marseille, in France, to visit their anechoic rooms and meet the researchers who work there. I invite you to watch the video of the interview that was made on this occasion (English subtitles available): czcams.com/video/Et_1J3O_pf8/video.html

      To get rid of low frequency sounds as well as high ones, instead of the active cancellation, could very large wedges be put on the walls, to trap the large wavelengths, and then have smaller wedges lining the sides of the large wedges, kind of like a fractal, to trap the rest?

      It's the positive about having a language most of the world speaks, ScienceClic is technically a french channel, with scienceclic english being a translation of the main channel
      czcams.com/users/ScienceClic
      Surprisingly Scienclic has still more subscribers than ScienceClic english, despite there being a far larger number of people who speak english than french, I wonder why, I was expecting the opposite

    • @anonymous-rb2sr

      I think both of them are french, not just roussel but the translator (Octave, which is a pretty common french name, that comes either from the latin "Octavian" or a gallic equivalent)
      It's funny too, in the clip at the end he manages to switch to french instantly, but after speaking 2 sentences in french he takes him a second to speak english without a french accent again 😂 11:36
      he says "video ecoscientific project" while still speaking with the french pronunciation, it's intresting how our brains deal with accents, as different languages arent just languages, they're accents too, so when you switch from speaking french to speaking english, you also have to switch your "accent"/way you pronounce words, and this can cause even someone who normally speaks a foreign language without accent to go back to having an extremely strong one, which is actually something that is very hard to do on purpose I've notice, if you speak multiple languages very well try to speak a foreign one you know with a thick accent, it's pretty hard to do

Regarding the next question I was just wondering how they manage the noise from the lights, considering there were many in the videos you showed.

    4 dimensional space-time seems to be fluid.
    Mass & Energy are 2 sides of the same coin.
    It almost seems like the more mass something has, the more energy is available to curve space-time.
    What if space-time is like water, in that if you add energy to it, it changes?
    If you compress a spring, its mass increases. Because you put energy into the spring as you compress it.
    I think this might be important when thinking about Gravity, too.
    Energy into a spring increases its mass.
    Increase in mass, increases curvature of space-time around the mass.
    By compressing a spring, you affect the curvature of space-time around the spring.
    Because Mass & Energy are 2 sides of the same coin.
    Another example is:
    If you have 2 identical cups of coffee (atom for atom, exactly identical)
    ...The cup with warmer coffee will have a greater Mass.
    Because heat stems from kinetic energy of vibrating atoms.
    Energy & Mass are 2 sides of the same coin.
    So your Microwave oven is essentially just a "Mass Increaser".
    Because it puts thermal energy into your food, & the Mass of your hot food has increased.
    -But where does a Microwave oven get energy to come on & work?...
    From electricity used to do work via closed electrical circuits.
    -Well where do that electrical energy comes from?...
    It comes from electric (& magnetic) fields.
    -Where are these fields?...
    They are part of an aggregate of fields that permeate the whole of space-time.
    The energy that flows through a closed electrical circuit is essentially leached from space-time & then used to do work. & then restored back to space-time.
    Nick Lucid from Science Asylum explains this beautifully.
    -This shows that Energy, Mass, space-time & gravity all work together.
    & since there _is_ a relationship between Gravity & Mass, I think its worth asking where Energy comes into play with gravity.
    If the energy density of a unit of space-time increases, is the curvature of that unit of space-time affected?
    My guess is yes. & I bet Blackholes prove it to be true.
    What if a Singularity is just that?...
    A total saturation of energy density per a planck unit of space-time?...

    Those mics would need to be placed in the centre of the room as well as around the walls, or they won’t be able to cancel the sound until it’s too late, surely? Noise cancelling headphones are so effective because they’re right next to your ear, with no (perceptible) distance allowed for the sound to travel in either direct. Your French is very elegant btw.

    why is it that ANC only cancels low frequencies then?

    So, if you stood behind the speaker in the anechoic room, you shouldn't hear it right?

    I'm not quite get it. How the low frequency sound can't be trapped by wall wedges?

      They are same size of the walls of the studio, travelling almost like a second wall of sound (imagine a large water wave breaking on the sand of the beach, its seems to hit straight for various meters) that make them undisturbed by the foam wedges on the walls, that only traps high pitch waves because they are smaller in size.

      @@zharul8716 I still don't get it. Even if the wave length is very long, it's still made of small particles that get pushed forward and collide with the foam wedges..

    why aren't the walls antiparallel?
