How are sound localization and time related?
Sound localization depends on the time delay between when a sound reaches each ear. By comparing the slight differences in arrival time, the brain can determine the direction from which the sound originated. This time difference, known as interaural time difference, is a crucial factor in our ability to locate sounds in space.
Why do shallow objects make a sound when you put them to your ear?
When putting a shallow object to your ear, the sound you hear is likely due to vibrations generated when the object comes in contact with your skin and hair. These vibrations are amplified by the shape of the object and can be transmitted to your inner ear, where they are perceived as sound.
Which part of the ear traps sound?
The outer ear, specifically the ear canal and the eardrum (tympanic membrane), traps and funnels sound waves towards the middle ear for processing.
What are the two cues that help us localize sound are?
Arrival time and intensity difference. Due to the different spacial positioning and orientation of the ears, a sound wave will arrive at each ear at slightly different times and with slightly different intensity. For example, if a sound originates to the right of a person, the sound will reach the right ear first and the right ear will experience a greater intensity. These very small differences are integrated in the nervous system and are manifested as the ability to localize sound.
What is the purpose of the middle ear in interpreting sound?
The purpose of the middle ear is to amplify and transmit sound vibrations from the outer ear to the inner ear, where they are converted into electrical signals that the brain can interpret as sound.
What part of the ear is sound produced by?
The ear does not produce (make) sound.
How do you know sound?
Your ear make you know sound and such.
How do we localize the source of a sound?
To localize the source of a sound, our brain uses cues like the time it takes for the sound to reach each ear (interaural time difference) and the difference in the intensity of the sound in each ear (interaural level difference). These cues help us determine the direction from which a sound is coming.
If there is a tree that falls in the woods and no one is there to hear it does it make a sound?
no because sound is thecnacly the vibrations in your ear so no ear no sound
What would happen to sound if you held a megaphone to your ear and why?
Holding a megaphone to your ear would amplify the sound that reaches your ear. This can potentially damage your hearing due to the increased intensity of the sound waves. It's important to be cautious with loud noises to prevent hearing loss.
The pitch of the sound is increased. What difference will this make to the way the ear drum vibrates?
it does not do any thing :)
Why do you hear the sound with your right ear before your left ear?
The difference in hearing the sound with your right ear before your left ear is due to the time it takes for the sound waves to travel from the source to each ear. Sound waves travel faster through air than through the bones in your skull, which causes a slight delay in hearing the sound with the ear furthest from the source.
What part of the ear make the sound that reaches the middle ear louder?
the three tiny bones in the middle ear

Drumming sound in the ear?
Hearing a drumming or thumping sound in your ear is called pulsatile tinnitus. It can be caused by increased blood flow, turbulent blood flow, or intracranial hypertension.
Why do shallow objects make a sound when you put them to your ear?
When putting a shallow object to your ear, the sound you hear is likely due to vibrations generated when the object comes in contact with your skin and hair. These vibrations are amplified by the shape of the object and can be transmitted to your inner ear, where they are perceived as sound.
What make your ear hurt?
An ear infection could make it hurt, or maybe even because you heard a very loud sound from close by
