Metaphysical question:Stone vibrations?

Question

What does it mean when a stone vibrates to a certain number?

Answer 1

There may be an electric field across it.

"When a piece of quartz (silicon dioxide) is subjected to [an electric field] with a frequency that matches the quartz's resonance frequency, it begins to vibrate.   [The resonance frequency depends on how it was cut]. As the quartz crystal vibrates, it temporarily changes from a non-conducting state to a conducting state. This oscillation generates [an electrical] signal that alternates between the electrically 'on' and 'off' values at fixed intervals based on the resonance frequency of the quartz crystal."

Answer 2

Nothing, I guess by number you must mean rate. Nothing special in a stone....at least to my understanding :)

Answer 3

It means you are courteous and considerate.Ringing stones are annoying and distracting,especially at restaurants and movies.

Answer 4

A number of what?  Are you talking about a certain frequency of sound?  Sound is a physical vibration of the molecules in the stone, so it may have resonance frequencies at certain pitches if it's fairly uniform in nature.  

Answer 5

Look up the febenocci numbers aqnd you will get a whole lecture on stone and vibration.
