Sound is waves in the air that vibrate the ear drum in your ears allowing you to hear. When movement is made these waves are sent through the air and are perceived as sound if they are with audible range.

So technically when you fart there is waves gong through the air that can be detected by your ears!!!

Why does the flame move with sound?

The movement of the flame in response to sound is due to acoustic waves causing fluctuations in air pressure. These pressure changes affect the flow of air around the flame, leading to its movement. This phenomenon is known as the "singing flame."


How does movement make sound?

Movement can make sound when objects rub, scrape, or hit each other, causing vibrations in the air. These vibrations travel as sound waves to our ears, where they are interpreted as sound. The intensity and frequency of the sound produced depend on the speed, force, and nature of the movement.


What is the movement of sound from one location to another?

Sound moves through a medium, such as air, by creating vibrations. These vibrations cause particles in the medium to compress and expand, creating a wave that travels from the source of the sound to the listener. The sound wave carries the energy of the sound from one location to another.


What is to and fro movement of sound waves?

The to and fro movement of sound waves refers to the vibration of particles in the medium (such as air) as the sound waves pass through it. This back and forth movement of particles creates areas of high and low pressure, which are perceived by our ears as sound.


WHY SOUND MAKE A LIGHT SPOT DANCE?

When sound waves hit a thin surface, they can create vibrations that cause the surface to move slightly. This movement can be enough to make a light spot appear to dance or move around due to the vibrations induced by the sound waves. The phenomenon is known as a "Chladni figure" or "singing sand" effect, where different frequencies of sound can create different patterns of movement in the light spot.

How are sound waves generated in the sun?

I would expect any movement of matter to cause some sound.


What is the cause of sound energy?

Movement of a surface. In other words kinetic energy gives rise to sound energy.


What is the relationship between earthquakes and crustal movement?

Crustal movements cause earthquakes because of the sound waves and the movement underground.


Can sound cause a earthquake?

No, sound itself cannot cause an earthquake. Earthquakes are caused by the sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust, usually as a result of tectonic plate movement or volcanic activity. Sound waves are different from seismic waves that cause earthquakes.

How does sound change into movement?

Movement causes the air to vibrate. This creates sound waves.

What movement does mantle convection currents cause?

They cause plate movement. The plate movement then causes an earthquake.


What converts sound waves into mechanical movement?

Why would a car alarm sound for no apparent reason?

The most likely cause. The ultrasonic sensors have picked up air movement in the cars interior.
