PART 2 (To be done individually) You now have a task: Design a musical instrument that will play the following notes: C 523 Hz – D 587 Hz – E 659 Hz – F 698 Hz – G 784 Hz – A 880 Hz – B 988 Hz – C 1047 Hz – I will provide you with all the PVC pipe you need to make these 8 soundmakers. However, I want to spend more money than necessary, so you need to use the don’t smallest amount of pipe you can get away with. This means you are going to have to do some thinking to figure out what the actual lengths are that you will need for each of the 8 pipes. You can use the knowledge you gained from our previous experience to help you calculate these lengths. You may add 2 3 cm to each pipe in order to make room to put – a plug in the bottom end of each pipe, and to allow for the expected inaccuracies you will have when cutting the pipe. You can have complete freedom in designing the layout of this musical instrument. Keep in mind that since it is a musical instrument it should be user-friendly. You will decide how and with what you will plug the bottom end of the pipe. I will provide the pipe, craft sticks, tape, glue, and cardboard. I am also happy to help you try to find other materials you might think you need. I to see what you come up with! can’t wait
