Why can't you hear clearly underwater?
Sound waves accessible by humans are attenuated in water.
What takes sound waves from the inner ear to the brain?
Sound travels in waves. Our ears pick up these waves and funnel them to the eardrum. The eardrum interprets them as vibrations. These vibrations pass through the eardrum, into the inner ear via the hammer, anvil, and stirrup bones. This causes fluid in the inner ear to bend tiny hairs which convert the vibrations into nerve impulses. The auditory nerve then sends the signals to the brain, which converts them again into the sound of what is heard.
How is the universe noisey without air?
Sound waves cannot travel through space and be heard by humans. There is no air wich means the air cannot vibrate wich means our ears cannot pick it up.
Function of frogs tympanic membrane?
Not only the tympanic membrane receives wavesounds, it also equalizes the pressure within.
What is the name of the upbeat part of a measure?
pick up note
What sre sound waves?
Sound waves are longitudinal vibrations through matter that ears can pick up as sound.
What are types of energy that travel in waves?
Take your pick: water waves, sound waves, electromagnetic waves, gravitational waves.
What are two types of energy that travel in waves?
Take your pick: water waves, sound waves, electromagnetic waves, gravitational waves.
How does the output speakers and headphones work?
sound travels from the computer to the speakers where sound waves pick up and the sound gets played
Are there animals that pick up sound waves different than human?
yep! plenty
What physics are in an ukulele?
Like all instruments, sound is produced. This production involves creating of sound waves in frequencies that the human ear can pick up. Wave motion, harmonics, reverberation and resonance are all part of the physics of the instrument.
Why can't you hear clearly underwater?
Sound waves accessible by humans are attenuated in water.
Why does the ear pick up sound waves instead of light waves?
The two are different because Sound waves are longitudinal mechanical waves, but light waves are transverse electromagnetic waves, and sound requires a medium through which to travel, but light doesn't. Basically, Sound waves move sort of differently than Light waves.
What are the devices which converts sound signal into electrical signal other than microphone?
One is the hydrophone, used to pick up sound waves underwater.
Examples of the application of interfrence of sound waves?
Since the two waves 180 degrees out of phase cancel each other you can use interference for noise dampening. Pick up the sound and generate a signal that cancels it.
What makes it possible for your ear to hear?
your ears pick up vibrations called sound waves in the air and we inperpret these as 'sounds'
How does your ears pick up sound?
Your ears don't pick up the sound, by the way. Well, you should know that sound is actually a wave that is vibrating. When sound is realeased, the wave travels until it halts. IF your in the distance of the waves aim, the wave will hit your ear drum. Then it vibrates into your ear, and your brain translates it for you. Then you hear sound.
