They absorb some of the sound energy and reduce it to safe and acceptable levels.


Is it true that the funnel for sound waves in the ear is the outer ear?

No, the funnel for sound waves in the ear is actually the outer ear. The outer ear acts like a funnel, directing sound waves into the ear canal towards the eardrum, which vibrates in response to the sound waves.

How does sound travel to your ear?

Sound travels to your ear as air particles vibrate when sound waves are created. These vibrations enter the ear canal and cause the eardrum to vibrate. The 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 for processing.


What is The external part of the ear that helps catch sound is the?

No part of the ear actually amplifies sound, but the middle ear changes the nature of the waves from high amplitude to low amplitude but stronger waves to make the transition from air to liquid.


How does you ear hear sound?

Sound is a mechanism that is carried out by a median which the air particles that carries the sound waves to our ear that we actually hear. There are different sizes of sound waves released by different frequencies and then carried at different speed by the air particles to our ear. Without a median, it is impossible to hear anything around you, like if we take "OUTER SPACE OR VACUUM" into consideration, there is existence of median or no movement of air particles that could carry the sound waves. So as a result what actually our ear detect is the sound waves brought to your ears by a median.


What does the outer ear do to sound waves?

to funnel or pass sound waves through the ear to the middle ear
