What else can I help you with?
What is The length of time a person is exposed to sound called?
The length of time a person is exposed to sound is called "duration of exposure." This refers to the amount of time a person is subjected to noise or sound levels that can potentially affect their hearing.
What is a standard threshold in hearing?
A standard threshold in hearing refers to the faintest sound that a person can detect at least 50% of the time across a range of frequencies. It is typically measured in decibels (dB) during a hearing test.
What is the difference between threshold of hearing and absolute threshold of hearing?
The absolute threshold of hearing is the lowest possible tone/decibel you could possibly hear. (This differs form person to person). The Differential Threshold is the point at which a person recognizes the decibel level has changed.Hope this answers your question, just learned this in psychology!
What is an energy chain in sound?
An energy chain in sound refers to the sequence of events that occur as sound energy travels from a sound source to a receiver (e.g., from a speaker to a listener). It involves the conversion of electrical energy to mechanical energy (sound waves) and ultimately to acoustic energy that is perceived by our ears.
Are the sound waves that travel to the ear for hearing transverse or longitudinal?
Sound waves that travel to the ear for hearing are longitudinal waves.
What are the current uses of hearing aids?
Hearing aids are used to amplify sound, making it easier for a hearing impaired person to differentiate sounds and easier understand dialogue.
Is listen the same as hearing?
In a sense, But listening is more having a conversation and paying attention to what the person's saying. Hearing is just sound audible to you.
What is The length of time a person is exposed to sound called?
The length of time a person is exposed to sound is called "duration of exposure." This refers to the amount of time a person is subjected to noise or sound levels that can potentially affect their hearing.
What are hearing aids capable of doing?
An aid can help a person hear better, but it won't return hearing to normal levels. Hearing aids boost all sounds, not just those the person wishes to hear. Especially when the source of sound is far away
What does the hear aid do?
Hearing Aids are used to amplify and *modulate sound for a partially deaf person. *Modulate - to adjust the pitch, tone or volume of sound.
What is a standard threshold in hearing?
A standard threshold in hearing refers to the faintest sound that a person can detect at least 50% of the time across a range of frequencies. It is typically measured in decibels (dB) during a hearing test.
What are the events that occur starting from an object vibrating to you hearing the sound?
When an object vibrates it produces disturbance in the medium and then the compressions and rarefactions produced travels through the medium to our ears from the vibrator and hence the sound is perceived.
What is the difference between threshold of hearing and absolute threshold of hearing?
The absolute threshold of hearing is the lowest possible tone/decibel you could possibly hear. (This differs form person to person). The Differential Threshold is the point at which a person recognizes the decibel level has changed.Hope this answers your question, just learned this in psychology!
What is a sound transmitter that limits the area that a person can hear the sound targeting one person in a crowd to only hearing the sound as seen on Discovery Channel?
The equipment is called "Long Range Acoustic Device" or LRAD. These are developed by American Technology Corp.
What is an energy chain in sound?
An energy chain in sound refers to the sequence of events that occur as sound energy travels from a sound source to a receiver (e.g., from a speaker to a listener). It involves the conversion of electrical energy to mechanical energy (sound waves) and ultimately to acoustic energy that is perceived by our ears.
Do you get hearing problems from the sound grenade?
Hearing problems from a Sound Grenade are TEMPORARY; however if someone were to be REPEATEDLY exposed to Sound Grenades (many times), they would MOST LIKELY have PERMANENT HEARING PROBLEMS.
When hugging someone with a hearing aid is it normal to hear it screech?
The screech or squeal you hear when hugging someone with a hearing aid is caused by sound waves. Hearing aids amplify sound to help the person hear better, and typically some of the sound waves escape out of the ear unnoticed. If you get too close to the hearing aid, however, instead of escaping out into the world, the sound waves are recycled back into the hearing aid. This is similar to putting a mic in front of a speaker. Screech! Most of the newer hearing aids have the technology to identify this sound and reduce it within microseconds, so they screech very little. Either way, if you are lucky enough to get a hug from someone, just disregard the sound, and enjoy the "squeeze" instead of the "screech"!
