Do tiny vibrations carry sound through the air?
Vibrations through some medium ARE sound. Vibrations through the air are just one example. The air vibrates and when the vibrations hit human ear drums, they are heard.
How does putting your ear to the ground help you hear better?
Hearing is a result of vibrations. The sound waves move through the air and vibrate your ear drum. The vibrations are translated by the brain as familiar sounds. Similarly, walls and doors resonate to the same sound waves and act like giant ear drums. By placing your ear to the door, you are effectively able to "transfer" those vibrations from the door (or wall) to your ear and hear, more clearly, what is happening on the other side.
What matter is sound?
Sound is vibrations not matter.
What causes all sounds?
sound comes from disturbances in the air, causing vibrations in the air molecules. Our ear has a bone (The stirrup, also known as the tiniest bone in the body ) that picks up these vibrations and sends a signal to the brain depending on how much the stirrup moved.
How the sound travels inside the ear?
Sound waves enter through the outer ear, then sound waves move through the ear canal. Next sound waves strike the eardrum, causing it to vibrate, then vibrations enter the middle ear. Then the hammer picks up the vibrations, then vibrations are passed to the anvil. Next the vibrations are transmitted to the stirrup, then a vibrating membrane transmits vibrations to the inner ear, and then vibrations are channeled into the cochlea. Then nerve cells detect vibrations and convert them to electrical impulses, then electrical impulses are transmitted to the brain. Then the brain interprets electrical impulses as sound.
What are free vibrations?
A tuning fork struck result in free vibrations.
What are the sounds of rain?
Vibrations are the scientific result to any sound.
Does slower cooling result in bigger cystals?
Does slower cooling result in bigger crystals
Is it true that seismic waves are vibrations that travel through earth as the result of earthquakes?
yes
How does the surface waves cause rocks to move?
the surface waves cause vibrations invisible to the eye. these vibrations shake rocks and stuff on the surface and result in fractional movement.
Vibrations caused by rocks breaking and moving as a result af a sudden release of energy?
Vibrations caused by rocks breaking and moving as a result of a sudden release of energy is called an Earthquake. By the movement of plate boundaries, depending how it moved, is how strong the Earthquake will be.
When the volume is loud does it vibrate more or less?
The higher the volume of sound, the bigger the vibrations. This is because more and bigger sound waves are being produced by the source of sound.
What causes therm energy?
Thermal energy is the result of the constant movement and vibrations of the atoms in a substance
Who produces sound energy?
Vibrations result in a wave, which is a form of energy, and can be measured in frequency and height.
Meaning of enlargement?
the process of making bigger, or the result of becoming bigger
What happens to the sound an object makes when the speed of vibrations decreases?
When the speed of vibrations decreases, the pitch of the sound produced by the object lowers. This is because the frequency of the vibrations decreases as well. As a result, the sound becomes deeper or lower in tone.
How crystal movements can result in Earthquakes?
Crystals have electric properties which are responsible for producing vibrations which cause earthquakes...
