Which part of the ear changes sound energy into electrical energy?
the cochlea
Why dies the energy of a sound wave decrease over time?
For one, as the sound spreads over a larger area, the intensity decreases. This is similar to a light becoming dimmer, the farther away you get away from the light source - the light, too, spreads over a larger area, so in both cases, less energy is available per unit area. On the other hand, part of any sound (or light, or other wave) will be absorbed - converted to other types of energy.
Why is an echo weaker than original sound?
You hear the echo as if from a longer distance; the sound energy gets dispersed over a larger area. Part of the energy will also be absorbed in the wall or whatever reflects the sound.
What body part allows you to smell when energy changes from one form to another?
the nose
If a mass spring system is hung vertically and set in to motion why does the motion eventually stop?
Energy is lost in any such process. Air resistance, resistance within the spring, even sound, can dissipate part of the energy.Energy is lost in any such process.

Which part of the ear changes sound energy in to another form of energy?
cochlea
Which part of the ear changes sound energy into another form of energy?
Cochlea
Does energy make up sound?
Sound is energy. It is part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
Is sound energy part of electromagnetic energy?
No, the two are unrelated.
What part of the ear changes the sound into electrical impulses?
the cilia inside the cochlea

What contains sound energy?
As you may know, the sound energy is basically a wave or many waves traveling through the air( or anything that is not a void ) and those waves carry energy not matter. the sound waves or sound energy is a part of kinetic energy because the energy is not waiting to be unleashed, in fact it's moving within the air or any other material
What happens to potential energy after it decreases?
The potential energy will have converted into some other kind of energy. For example, for an object in free fall, it converts to kinetic energy (the object moves faster); if there is some resistance, part of this energy will convert to heat.

Which piece of apparatus would you use to change sound energy to electrical energy?
-- a microphone -- the part of a telephone near your mouth
What changes the state between a solid and a liquid?
more energy, for the most part heat, changes the state between solid and liquid.
