What is a compression wave of gas liquid or solid that is detected by your ear?
A compression wave is not matter, it is a transference of energy.
How are sound wave detected?
The way that sound waves are detected in your ear or in a microphone are fundamentally the same. Your ear and a microphone both have a lightweight membrane that is sensitive to sudden changes in pressure. In the ear this is called an Ear Drum. By sensitive, I mean that high pressure pushes it and low pressure pulls it. It physically moves like the skin of a drum. This movement can be detected, in a microphone it is detected by attaching a magnet to the vibrating membrane, and having a loop of wire near the magnet, but not attached to it. When the magnet moves relative to the wire a voltage is induced in the wire. This is called Faraday's Law. In your ear the process of measuring is more complicated but is essentially based on measuring the vibrations of the eardrum.
A sound wave is this kind of wave?
longitudinal wave
What is a cycle of a brain wave?
goes through your ear and out the other...
What happens to a sound wave if there are no particles to vibrate?
the sound wave will not make it to the ear drums. you wont hear the sound.
What is a compression wave of gas liquid or solid that is detected by your ear?
A compression wave is not matter, it is a transference of energy.
What wave can be detected by the ear?
sound waves, between about 20 Hz to 20000 Hz (for most people).
How is a tsunami wave detected?
A tsunami wave can be detected by a wave gauge and pressure monitors.
How sounds propagate?
The action is like a slinky spring, except its the air thats the medium transmitting a pressurised wave of air molocules, this pressure is detected by your ear.
Which type of seismic waves cannot be detected on the side of Earth opposite an earthquake?
The type of wave that cannot be detected on the other side of Earth is a secondary wave also known as a s wave
What is in the area where no seismic wave are detected?
Stress waves
How is the pressure variation in a sound wave amplified in human ear?
how is the pressure varition in a sound wave amplified in human ear
What type of wave does the ear process?
The ear hears sound waves.
What kind of wave is a radio wave?
A radio wave is a kind of electromagnetic wave.

When an earthquake occurs which types of wave will be detected first?
P-waves.
Seismic P-wave can be detected worldwide from strong epicenter?
true
