Impulses in the ear are transmitted by hair cells located in the cochlea. These hair cells convert sound vibrations into electrical signals that are then sent to the brain via the auditory nerve.
The ossicles amplify the sound. They send the sound waves to the inner ear and into the fluid-filled hearing organ (cochlea). ... The auditory nerve sends these impulses to the brain. The brain then translates these electrical impulses as sound.
The sensory or afferent division of the peripheral nervous system transmits impulses from the sense organs to the CNS.
Sound waves enter through the outer ear, then sound waves move through the ear canal. Next sound waves strike the eardrum, causing it to vibrate, then vibrations enter the middle ear. Then the hammer picks up the vibrations, then vibrations are passed to the anvil. Next the vibrations are transmitted to the stirrup, then a vibrating membrane transmits vibrations to the inner ear, and then vibrations are channeled into the cochlea. Then nerve cells detect vibrations and convert them to electrical impulses, then electrical impulses are transmitted to the brain. Then the brain interprets electrical impulses as sound.

The fiber that transmits impulses to the central nervous system is called an afferent or sensory fiber. These fibers carry sensory information from receptors in the body to the brain and spinal cord, allowing for the perception of different sensations like touch, temperature, and pain.

Myelin sheath never transmits the impulse from one neuron to another. On the contrary these are insulating cells which prevent transmission of nerve impulses.

The sensory or afferent division of the peripheral nervous system transmits impulses from the sense organs to the CNS.
The auditory nerve transmits sound signals from the inner ear to the brain. It carries electrical impulses generated by the hair cells in the cochlea to the brainstem, where the signals are further processed and interpreted as sound.
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.
