Why do loud sounds damage ears?
Loud sound damages ears because every sound is a sound wave. The louder the sound the heaver the wave. That is also why you can see things vibrate when loud music is playing. This great sound wave can also hit hard against your ear drums. Sometimes to much can lead to hearing loss.
How would a lower pitch effect how your ear drum moves?
A lower pitch sound results in slower vibrations of sound waves, which leads to a lower frequency. This slower frequency causes the eardrum to move less rapidly compared to higher pitch sounds. Consequently, the eardrum's movement is dampened, leading to a different sensation in hearing and potentially affecting the perception of loudness and clarity of the sound.
Is it harder to tune an ukulele by pitch pipe or tuner?
It depends on the individual and whether they are a visual or audio person. I think it is harder to do it with a pitch pipe. But part of it will depend on your 'ear' and how good it is musically.
What vibrates as sound waves hit it?
Your eardrums vibrate when sound waves hit them. The sound wave travels through the auditory canal which funnels the sound to the ear drum causing it to vibrate. The ear drum then amplifies the sound by vibration of bones. It is in the middle ear where sound energy is converted into mechanical energy. The cochlea in the inner ear converts the vibrations into electrical impulses before sending signals to the brain. The brain then interprets the impulses as sound.
What does the middle ear do?
transmits sound from the outer ear to the inner ear. -Drkanswers Your welcome! =) Hope this helped!! Bye!
Which part of the ear determines the pitch of a sound?
The cochlea, located in the inner ear, is responsible for determining the pitch of a sound. The different frequencies of sound waves are translated into electrical signals by the hair cells in the cochlea, which are then sent to the brain for interpretation.
The frequency of a sound wave determines what?
The rate at which the sound source is vibrating :) --> novanet answer
What determines the highness or lowness of a sound?
The frequency of a sound wave determines the pitch of the sound. Higher frequency waves produce higher-pitched sounds, while lower frequency waves produce lower-pitched sounds. The pitch is perceived by the human ear based on how rapidly the sound wave vibrates.
How are vibrations waves and energy are related to sound?
Sound is a form of energy produced by vibrations traveling through a medium, such as air. These vibrations create sound waves that can be detected by the ear and interpreted as sound. The frequency of the vibrations determines the pitch of the sound, while the amplitude of the vibrations determines the volume.
Is pitch the quality of being a high or low sound?
Yes, pitch is the quality of sound that determines whether it is perceived as high or low. It is determined by the frequency of sound waves, with higher frequencies creating higher pitch sounds and lower frequencies creating lower pitch sounds.
What part of the ear is sound produced by?
The ear does not produce (make) sound.
Which part of the ear trap sound waves?
ear drum
What part of your ear do sound waves enter through?
Ear canal
Part of the ear that catches sound waves?
External (outer) ear.
Which part of the ear collects sound waves?
The pinna of the ear collects sound waves. This is the part you see on the side of the head.
Name the part of the outer ear that directs sound waves to the tympanic?
That part is called as ear lobe or the pinna of the ear.
Where do people wear ear defenders?
people wear ear defenders because incase of a high pitch sound the ears defenders absorb the sound and then you don't have an ear infection.
