How does the vibration of a drumhead cause a sound wave to form?

As the drum head moves one way, it disturbs the air molecules near it, causing some of them to bunch closer together, increasing the pressure. This higher pressure area starts to affect the air molecules near it, so the high pressure area starts to move away. When the drum head moves in the other way, air molecules will move toward it to fill the space created. This makes a low pressure region. The alternating high and low pressure regions is the sound wave, traveling through the air.


What are the forces acting on a oil drum on sea?

Corrosion is the main problem affecting an oil drum in the ocean, then as corrosion makes the metal thinner, ocean currents cause the drum to tear and rupture, releasing the contents.


What type of wave causes us to hear a sound?

Sound is carried through the air by pressure waves. Think of the ripples in a pond caused by a thrown rock. The crests of the ripples would correspond to higher air pressure while the troughs would correspond to lower pressure. These pressure waves, moving away from the sound source at the speed of sound, are very slight but the human ear drum will flex with very small changes in pressure. This tiny flexing of the ear drum is sent to the inner ear by the bones behind the ear drum. It is known as the longitudinal wave.This travels by compressions and rarefactions caused in air.


What happens when sound waves strike the eardrum?

Your eardrum will vibrate and transfer the sound vibrations to three tiny bones in the middle ear, which carry the vibrations to the cochlea of the inner ear, where they are transformed into nerve impulses.


How does longitudinal waves in the air produce longitudinal waves in the cochlear fluid of the inner ear?

The pressure wave in the air enters the ear canal and vibrates the tympanic membrane (the ear drum) the ear drum vibrates the malleus (hammer), the incus (anvil) and the stappes (stirrup) in the middle ear. These bonds vibrate the oval window (into the cochlea) and the oval window produces a pressure wave in the fluid in the inner ear.

Who do your ears pain when you are on a plane?

It is due to unequal air pressure on each side of your ear drum. Swallowing or sucking on a boiled sweet often equalises the pressure and removes the pain.

yes, too much pressure on the ear drum can damage your hearing.


What would cause your new brake drum being out of round I replaced the shoes and put the new drum on and tightened by hand and now the parst guy says the drum is out of round.?

If it is a "used" drum it could have been involved in an impact of some sort. Again if it is a used drum, it may have been "turned" or "refaced" too many times, leaving it out of "true" and too thin. If the drum again is used, it may have been heated during continued stopping and then subjected to water on the road. The drum may simply "warp" thus giving you a pulsation or unequal braking

What is the pressure of a sound on an ear drum?

The sound pressure wave is travelling down the ear canal, hits the area of the eardrum, which vibrates ... just like a drum! Sound pressure p = force F divided by area A.

Why a diver cannot go too deep at sea for fear of breaking his ear drum?

because the deeper one dives the more pressure (from the increasing body of water now pushing down on him and the water around him). This increased pressure can cause rupturing of the ear drum as well as other physiological changes. Another equally detrimental act is returning from a deep dive too quickly. the rapid loss of pressure can cause a diver's blood to form bubbles in it from being in what, in relation to the deep dive, is essentially a vacuum.
