What does the outer ear do to sound waves?
to funnel or pass sound waves through the ear to the middle ear
Is sound produced when things vibrate?
Actually, sound isn't caused by vibrations, sound is the vibrations. You see, sound is just our complex ear receiving these signals and interpreting them into what our brains can understand.
How is sound reproduced?
Sound is actually a series of sound waves or vibrations. These waves pulse against the eardrum, which the bones to the ear send to the brain as sounds. Acoustics in audio equipment convert sound on a record back into sound waves.
How do ear defenders reflect sound waves?
Ear defenders don't reflect sound waves, they absorb or reduce the amplitude of the sound.
Which structures within the ear transfer a sound wave during hearing?
The ear drums are responsible from transferring sound waves from the outer ear to the middle ear. It vibrates in response to these waves.
What property of waves is the worker taking advantages of by wearing ear protectors?
Sound waves
How do ear protectors help protect against hearing damage?
They absorb some of the sound energy and reduce it to safe and acceptable levels.
What is the relationship with vibration with sound?
Sound, actually, is the vibration of air. The vibrations hit your ear drum in your ear.
How does sound travel to your ear?
sound is actually vibrations. your eardrum is highly sensitive, like ripples on water, it picks up these vibrations
What do rock stars wear on there ears to protect them?
ear protectors
Do ear and teach have a short e sound?
No. The EA in teach has a long E sound, and the EA in "ear" is similar, although actually an R-shaped sound called a caret I.
Do ear teach and seat have a short e sound?
No, none of them do. The EA pairs all have a form of long E sound, although in "ear" it is actually an R-shaped sound called a caret I.
What is The external part of the ear that helps catch sound is the?
No part of the ear actually amplifies sound, but the middle ear changes the nature of the waves from high amplitude to low amplitude but stronger waves to make the transition from air to liquid.
How does you ear hear sound?
Sound is a mechanism that is carried out by a median which the air particles that carries the sound waves to our ear that we actually hear. There are different sizes of sound waves released by different frequencies and then carried at different speed by the air particles to our ear. Without a median, it is impossible to hear anything around you, like if we take "OUTER SPACE OR VACUUM" into consideration, there is existence of median or no movement of air particles that could carry the sound waves. So as a result what actually our ear detect is the sound waves brought to your ears by a median.
What does the outer ear do to sound waves?
to funnel or pass sound waves through the ear to the middle ear
Does the ear drum have an electric current?
Actually your eardrum does not have electric current and in which it only uses sound so if you get an electric shock it does not harm your ear drums.
Is sound produced when things vibrate?
Actually, sound isn't caused by vibrations, sound is the vibrations. You see, sound is just our complex ear receiving these signals and interpreting them into what our brains can understand.
