Sound waves travel through the air and cause the eardrum to vibrate. These vibrations are then transmitted to tiny bones in the middle ear, which amplify the sound and send it to the inner ear. In the inner ear, hair cells convert the mechanical energy of the sound waves into electrical signals that are sent to the brain for interpretation.
What else can I help you with?
What Property of sound depends on the amount of energy a sound wave has as it reaches our ears?
I don't understand your questions. I know that our ear drums and the microphone diaphragms are moved directly by the sound pressure p, that is a sound field quantity. Forget the sound energy quantities when you talk about ears.
A wave in a rope is a transverse wave but a sound wave is an wave?
A wave in a rope is a transverse wave because the motion of the particles is perpendicular to the direction of energy transfer. Sound waves, on the other hand, are longitudinal waves because particles move parallel to the direction of energy transfer.
What kind of wave uses matter to transfer energy?
A sound wave or an ocean wave, for example
Do sound waves transfer energy parallel or perpendicular?
Sound waves transfer energy parallel to the direction of the wave propagation. This means that the oscillations of particles in the medium are in the same direction as the wave itself.
What is the term for the transfer of energy by a disturbance that moves through space?
wave
In a sound wave why does the vibrations and energy transfer go in the same direction?
A sound wave is a longitudinal wave.thus the vibratoins and energy transfer go in the same direction

Is there transfer of energy from one molecule to another as a sound wave?
yes
How is a sound wave interacted with matter?
reflection ,transfer energy, and ,be absorbent

How does energy transfer with the sound wave?
The transfer of energy in sound wave is by the atoms of that medium. When mechanical energy is given by our mouth in the atoms near the mouth, the atoms gain the mechanical energy and convert it into kinetic energy and begin to move within their mean positions and while moving they hit each other and the energy is is transferred to the other electron and this process continues until due to some factors the energy is transferred and heard by an observer at the other end. Sound waves require a material medium for their transmission. The transfer of energy in sound will not occur in a vacuum.
How does a sound wave transfer energy to your earsanything?
Sound waves travel through the air as fluctuations in air pressure. When a sound wave reaches your ears, it causes your eardrums to vibrate. These vibrations are then transmitted through the middle ear to the inner ear, where they are converted into electrical signals that are sent to the brain to be interpreted as sound.
How do vibrations produce sound?
A sound wave is a transfer of energy as it travels away from a vibrating source.
What type of wave is the method of sound energy transfer?
Sound travels in mechanical longitudinal waves.
