SNOW WHITE AND PROPERTIES OF WAVES

Either we open a new section of “cinema with science” or you´ll agree with me that Snow White is a tale and therefore, literature.

Without taking into account that the echo just appears when it´s necessary for the chorus of the song and that the prince jumps over the wall from his horse so easily, let´s consider how many physics laws are broken in this video.


From my humble amateur opinion, it would be very difficult for a human sound wave to reach  enough intensity to disturb the water surface. Besides, it would be a spherical wave which would crash several times into the walls of the well and that´s why it wouldn´t be able to make an isolated impact, as if it were a stone. In addition, the well doesn´t seem to be deep enough and finally, the synchronization between the sound and the impact into the water is kind of weird
