In The Case of the Barking Dogs, the tree house detectives gather information about sound to hypothesize why dogs are barking throughout their town. The detectives learn that sound is created by vibrations and that the length of a pipe determines the pitch of the sound. The detectives also discuss how to collect and analyze data efficiently.
