When a student plays a guitar how does a sound travel to reach your brain?
sound waves from an instrument or a sound system reach the outer ear.
How does sound travel through the air to someone?
the sound waves reach the ear.
What does the outer ear do to sound waves?
to funnel or pass sound waves through the ear to the middle ear
How does the sound produced by a vibrating object in a medium reach your ear?
When an object vibrates, it forces the neighbouring particles of the medium to vibrate. These vibrating particles then force the particles adjacent to them to vibrate. In this way, vibrations produced by an object are transferred from one particle to another till it reaches the ear.
How do ear defenders reflect sound waves?
Ear defenders don't reflect sound waves, they absorb or reduce the amplitude of the sound.
When a student plays a guitar how does a sound travel to reach your brain?
sound waves from an instrument or a sound system reach the outer ear.
How does sound travel through the air to someone?
the sound waves reach the ear.
How are sound localization and time related?
When a sound reaches one ear, the additional time it takes for the sound to reach the other ear helps the brain estimate the origin of the sound.
Why does sound travel through the air?
Sounds vibrate the air molecules, when the vibrating molecules reach your ear, you ear the sound, there are no molecules in space, thus no sound in space
You can't hear when you wear ear plugs because the vibrations cannot reach your what?
Your eardrum which is the membrane in the ear that vibrates to sound.
What three kinds of body parts do sound waves travel through before they reach the brain?
Outer ear, middle ear and inner ear
How does music from your iPod reaches to your ear?
The sound that comes from headphones are electronic pulses sent through the wire and reach your ear drum, which is vibrated and transformed into the sound that you hear.
What three general kinds of body parts do sound waves travel through before they reach the brain?
Sound waves travel through the outer ear, middle ear, and inner ear before they reach the brain. In the outer ear, sound waves are collected by the ear canal and directed to the eardrum. Then, in the middle ear, the sound waves cause the three tiny bones (hammer, anvil, and stirrup) to vibrate. Finally, in the inner ear, the vibrations are transformed into electrical signals that are sent to the brain via the auditory nerve.
Which sound will reach your ear first- 256 Hz or 240 Hz?
there are going to be at the ear at the same time even a 4th grader would know this
What is tympanum system?
The tympanic membrane, or ear drum. A thin piece of skin inside the ear that moves backwards and forwards when sound waves reach it
What does the shape of the ear do?
The shape of the ear helps to capture and funnel sound waves into the ear canal. The folds and curves in the ear also help to amplify and localize sounds, allowing us to better pinpoint the direction from which a sound is coming. Additionally, the ear shape contributes to our ability to filter out background noise and focus on specific sounds.
What would be the effect on the loudness of sounds if you held the mouthpiece of a megaphone to your ear?
Sounds would reach your ear, but sound all distorted. Like holding a seashell to your ear. So not much effect.
