well, when the istrument is played, something of it would vibrate, this vibration causes waves (called sound waves) to travel through the air. These waves then hit a small part inside our ear, called an eardrum, these vibrations are then sent to our brain through tiny nerves attached to the eardrum.

∙ 8y agoSimilar to waves in water, sound travels as waves through the air. The instrument creates a series of compressed air waves at a certain rate between each wave and travels through the air. When the waves of compressed air reach your ear your ear drum is pressed in by each wave at the same rate as they were created from the instrument. The amount of waves per unit time corresponds to a certain frequency, so when you hear a low sound there are less waves per second than when you hear a high pitched sound that has lots of waves per second. The range of frequencies most humans can hear is from 20 Hz (waves/second) to 20,000 Hz.

How does sound travel from instruments to your ears?
Sound creates waves in a material- compression waves. These waves are transmitted through the atoms/molecules in the material to the receiver. The denser a material is, the more effectively sound may travel; this is because the sound waves are transmitted more easily through the tightly packed molecules.
Sound is a messure in what unit?
sound is measured in decibles
Sound waves cannot travel on the?
Sound waves cannot travel through vaccum.
What does sound need to travel through?
Sound (and vibration) are a wave system of sequential compressions and rarefactions of a material. These waves are mechanical and do need a substance through which to travel. They cannot travel through a vacuum.
Explain why cant sound travel through vacuums?
there is no air in a vaccum. and sound needs air for the sound waves to travel through.
What must sound wave travel on to reach your ears?
sound waves travel through the air particles
How does sound travel through a string instrument?
it is produced by the string vibrating on the instrument when you strum it.
What must happen in order for a sound to be heard?
Something has to vibrate, and the sound waves have to travel to your ears.
If you put your hands on your ears and hum what does the sound travel through?
bone
What causes the sound waves that travel from an air hammer to your ears?
VIBRATIONS
Why is sound waves so importantto the world?
so the sound can travel to our ears so we can here things.
Why is there no sound in the vacuum of space?
Because sound travells by air and if there is no air then sound cannot travel to your ears. A vacum is where there is no air e.g. space.
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 the sound travel from the band to the fans?
The vibrations from the speaker that the instruments are connected to.
The reason for this is that when the ball inside the bell hits the sides of the bell the bell vibrates and lets off a jingle sound this sound flows through the air and enters your ears.?
the sound particles travel in waves and enters your ears
What doctor uses to listen to the heartbeat?
doctors use the stethoscope as the instrument that a doctor puts in their ears and listens to your heart sound
Why can't youhear sound in space?
well, sound is the vibration of air molecules which are detected by our ears. there is no air in space therefore there is no way for sound waves to travel, so there is no sound.
