Vibrations are transferred through the air as sound waves. When an object vibrates, it displaces air molecules nearby, creating a series of compressions and rarefactions that propagate through the air, carrying the vibrational energy. Our ears detect these sound waves and our brain interprets them as sound.
What else can I help you with?
What direction does air particles move when they cause vibration?
Air particles move back and forth in the direction of the vibration when they cause it. The energy from the vibrations is transferred through the air as sound waves.
What does a sound wave traveling through air transfer?
A sound wave traveling through air transfers energy in the form of vibrations. These vibrations cause particles in the air to oscillate back and forth, which results in the propagation of the sound wave through the medium.
What is air borne vibrations?
Airborne vibrations are vibrations that travel through the air rather than through a solid medium like a floor or a wall. They are caused by sound waves and can be felt as vibrations in the air, typically due to loud noises or machinery.
How is energy transferred from an electrical buzzer to the surrounding air?
Energy from the electrical buzzer is converted into sound energy, causing the buzzer to vibrate rapidly. These vibrations create pressure waves that travel through the air, resulting in sound waves that can be heard. This is how energy from the buzzer is transferred to the surrounding air in the form of sound.
How do sound waves, which are vibrations in the air, interact with matter to produce the sensation of hearing?
Sound waves, which are vibrations in the air, travel through the air and reach our ears. When sound waves hit an object, they cause the object to vibrate. These vibrations are then transferred to our ear drums, which convert them into electrical signals that are sent to our brain. Our brain interprets these signals as sound, allowing us to hear.

What does a sound wave traveling through air transfer?
A sound wave traveling through air transfers energy in the form of vibrations. These vibrations cause particles in the air to oscillate back and forth, which results in the propagation of the sound wave through the medium.
Do tiny vibrations carry sound through the air?
Vibrations through some medium ARE sound. Vibrations through the air are just one example. The air vibrates and when the vibrations hit human ear drums, they are heard.
How can one tuning fork's vibrations cause another tuning fork to vibrate?
Vibrations are transferred from one to the other through the air. If the two have the same frequency (or a very similar frequency), resonance will occur.

What vibrates when you play the violin?
The bow makes the string vibrate. The vibrations are transferred through the bridge to the instrument top. Vibrations are transferred from the top to the back side through a sound post. So, pretty much the whole body vibrates.
What happenes to refrigeration heat in the condenser?
It's transferred to the air which passes through the condenser fins.
Sound waves travel by vibrations in what?
Sound is energy of mechanical vibration transferred through a medium. Commonly the medium is air, but solids, liquids and gasses all transmit sound. Indeed, sound travels faster through liquid and solids than through gas. Sound does not propagate through a vacuum.
When you speak what do the vibrations have to travel through to get to the microphone?
They travel through the air.
How does your body make vibrations?
Your body makes vibrations through the movement of air or sound waves in your vocal cords or other muscles, which creates sound. These vibrations travel through the air and are perceived by our ears as sound.
