In which part of the ear does pressure need to be equalized when changing altitude or scuba diving?
The part of the ear that needs to be equalized during diving is called the Middle ear. The pressure in the outer ear will change with the pressure in the water you are diving through. Between the outer ear and the middle ear is the Tympanic Membrane, or "Eardrum", which will bend, when pressure in the outer ear and the middle ear isn't equal, causing umpleasantness or pain. This is countered by blowing air into the middle ear by what's called the Eustachian Tubes. By blowing extra air into the middle ear, the pressure inside the middle ear will increase, and since the Eardrum is the only flexible part of the middle ear, the increased pressure inside the middle ear, will cause the Eardrum to bend back to its original position. Hence, equalization...
Pressure of outer core?
The pressure of the outer core is 681g.
Is the eardrum part of the inner ear?
The inner delicate part; easily damaged by loud noises and high pressure.
Does the inter core have more pressure then the outer core?
Yes, Inter core has more pressure than outer core and that's why outer core is solid, because there is not enough pressure in outer core.
What is the approximate pressure at the mantle-outer core interface?
The D'' area of the mantle extends from 2798 km to 2900 km, which is the boundary between the mantle and the liquid outer core. At this level, the pressures are enormous, roughly equal to 1.4 million units of atmospheric pressure.
What layer of the earth makes up the crustal plates?
The Earth is composed of three layers. The lithosphere composes the crust or outer layer, the mantle the middle layer followed by the outer and inner core.
In which part of the ear does hearing take place?
"Hearing" - the conversion of sound into nerve impulses - occurs in the inner ear. The outer and middle are concerned with changing pressure waves in air into pressure waves in a liquid.
What two types of handlenses are there?
There are Convects which means the middle is big and the outer is thiner. And there are Concave which is smaller in the middle and bigger on the outer.
What is the portion of the inner ear that detects sound?
The tympanic membrane commonly called the ear drum. This membrane is stretched taut across the ear canal and detects tiny pressure deviations that are processed by the brain as sound.
What is an non example of pressure?
outer space is a non example
