What part of the ear vibrates when sound waves strike it?
The sound waves come through the auditory canal and hit the eardrum (or tympanic membrane). The eardrum is connected to the 3 ossicles of the middle ear: the hammer, anvil and stirrup (or malleus, incus and stapes). The eardrum vibrates the hammer, the hammer vibrates the anvil, the anvil vibrates the stirrup and the stirrup vibrates the cochlea in the inner ear which has hair-like nerve endings called cilia that move when the cochlea vibrates. The auditory nerve sends the vibrations to the brain to be interpreted. That's how we hear! :)
How does the eardrum work?
the ear drum is a part of your ear which vibrates to send the sound onto the three small bones.

What part of the ear vibrates when you hear sound?
There is a ear drum placed between external and internal ear. It is the most prominent structure that vibrates to produce sound. Then the three tiny bones in the middle ear also vibrate. Then the oval and round windows also vibrate. Then the hair cells in the inner ear also vibrate. The fluid that is present in the cochlea also vibrates.

How does the bass drum produses sounds?
When you strike a brass drum, it vibrates. These vibrations are transferred to the surrounding medium which is air which inturn transmits these waves into the human ear and vibrates the ear drum.This generates electrical impulses which are interpreted by the human brain which produses the sensation of sound.
Which part of ear is filled with liqud that vibrates causing little hairs to move?
That would be the Clochea. :]
Which part of the vibrates when soundwaves hit it?
The membrane that vibrates and transmits the vibrations is called the tympanic membrane or the eardrum. It is the divider between the external and middle chambers of the ear.
How does a string to make its sound?
It vibrates. The vibrations move through the dtring, then though the air and into your ear. In the ear the eardrum vibrates.
What is the persistance of hearing?

What happens if your ear vibrates too much?
