What is the difference b/w noise and music in physics?

Answer 1

When speaking of noise in relation to sound, what is commonly meant is meaningless sound of greater than usual volume. Thus, a loud activity may be referred to as noisy. However, conversations of other people may be called noise for people not involved in any of them, and noise can be any unwanted sound such as the noise of aircraft, neighbours playing loud music, or road noise spoiling the quiet of the countryside.

Music is like lalalalalala!

Answer 2

The different between what the human brain percieves as noise and what it percieves as music is this:

Music has collections of sine waves and harmonics (most of the time) and also repeats a pattern of soudns over a timeframe of seconds and minutes. As you'll see... nothing you call music is a series of sounds which are each new. There is always a form of repetition or a beat.

Noise is a more random set of sound with no pleasurable repetition and little harmonic coordination.

Not so much a physics question as a psychology question.

Answer 3

There is no physics difference. Noise is a subjective measure of annoyance, one man's noise is another man's music.

Answer 4

noise is a nuisance and an unpleasent sound whereas music is a pleasent and pleasing sound
