Whispering Galleries -- in the Old House of Representatives
Statuary Hall in the U.S. Capital building is elliptic.
It was in this room that John Quincy Adams, while a member of the House of Representatives, discovered this acoustical phenomenon. He situated his desk at a focal point of the elliptical ceiling,
easily eavesdropping on the private conversations of other House members located near the other focal point.
Any sound made at the focus
will rebound of the elliptical ceiling
and pass through the other focus.
APPLICATIONS OF
ELLIPSE IN REAL-LIFE
Pamilya Matapat
When you look in
perpendicular to the piece
you can see that it is circular
but as it rotates you see that
it becomes elliptical.
ELLIPTICAL POOL TABLE
FOOTBALL
This is also evident when looking in
at the top of your cup of tea
or when looking at the top
of any cylindrical object.
If an ellipse is rotated about
the major axis, you obtain a football.
The elliptical billiards table uses
the same principle as the
whispering gallery.
When a ball passes over the other
focal point, regardless of which point
on the ellipse it bounces off,
it will always pass over the
other focal point.
The pocket is positioned at one of the focal points.
