To investigate the origin, control and applications of the phenomenon causing the marked pitch rise when certain liquids slow after being stirred. This is easily seen in a cup filled with a milky drink if the bottom of the cup is tapped with a spoon as the drink comes nearly to a stop. Interestingly the major rise appears just before the liquid comes to a complete rest.
