  So assuming the dolphin can keep it balanced, what’s the weight of a trumpet and the force of the air required to make a note?

  So many questions that I wasn’t expecting today.

    They weigh about 1kg. The force of air is harder to answer as it’s less about how hard you blow and more about how loose or tight your lips are around the mouthpiece. But since dolphins can blow water several meters into the air, I’d just assume they can produce more than enough force to make a note.

      But enough force to lift the trumpet perhaps?
