When a gong vibrates the air particles next to athe gong do not reach your ears yet you hear the sound of the gong explain?

Sound propagates as a disturbance in air pressure. The movement of the gong first pushes air particles out of the way, creating a region of high pressure, but then moves back in the other direction, creating a region of low pressure, which the air particles move back to fill. So, air particles do move locally as the pressure changes, but there is no net transport of air. The energy in the wave is carried forward as a moving change in pressure. This change in pressure is detected by your ears. One can make a loose analogy with surface waves on water. Drop a pebble into a still pond. Waves will propagate outward from the point of contact, where water was initially displaced. The water waves propagate outward as the height of the water changes at each point, yet there is no net flow of water.


Why are hooded jackets seen as a bad thing to wear on sunny days?

Hooded jackets may be inappropriate for sunny days due to their warmth. The hood, especially, is valuable for keeping one's ears and neck warm on a cold day. Yet this may be unnecessary on a sunny day, as the sun itself provides warmth and a hood may block this.


Is bowlegged hereditary?

Yes is many cases it is, yet it can also be an injury at birth. Take your dog to the vets to be sure what it is and keep an eye on your dog for joint malfunction. I have a 16 lb. Cockapoo and he is bowlegged and I can hear little pops in the back joints so this means soon I will have to have surgery done on those joints. Big bill coming up!

What plan does Odysseus devise that will enable him to listen to the song of the of the Sirens yet remain unharmed by them?

Odysseus has his crew stop up their ears with beeswax to block the Sirens' song, while he asks to be tied to the mast so he can hear their enchanting song without being able to steer the ship towards danger.
