Abstract

In this paper we investigated if temperature effects the propagation and growth of cracks in a wine glass tuning nearest to a sound- machine. We based upon the laws of classic and fracture mechanics and we showed that the wine glass breaks when initially its temperature overcomes the temperature of the room and at continuity starts decreasing before equalizing.
