If the eardrum is not vibrating properly, it can affect the ability to hear and may indicate an issue with the ear's function or health. This can lead to hearing problems and potentially impact overall well-being.

The ear drum vibrates by the vibrating air molecules near it due to the sound wave.


Is the part of the ear that is set into vibration by vibrating air molecules the cochlea?

The eardrum is the first thing that vibrates in response to vibrating air or "sound". The cochlea is the last step in the process, and instead of vibrating it is filled with fluid that moves in response to vibration on a small window on the side. This moves the cochlear fluid and then is transferred to the brain through small hairs inside the organ. Three tiny bones (Malleus, Incus, and Stapes) transfer the vibration from the eardrum to the cochlea.


How does the sound produced by a vibrating object in a medium reach your ear?

When an object vibrates, it forces the neighbouring particles of the medium to vibrate. These vibrating particles then force the particles adjacent to them to vibrate. In this way, vibrations produced by an object are transferred from one particle to another till it reaches the ear.


Energy waves are directed down the ear canal to the eardrum by the?

Energy waves are directed down the ear canal to the eardrum by the outer ear, specifically the pinna and ear canal. The pinna collects sound waves and funnels them into the ear canal, where they travel to the eardrum causing it to vibrate and transmit sound signals to the inner ear.

How do your ears pick up sound?

Your ears pick up sound which travels in invisible waves through the air. Sound occurs when a moving or vibrating object causes the air around it to move. Sound waves travel down the ear canal and hit the eardrum in the middle ear. This causes the eardrum to vibrate. Three tiny bones in your middle ear link the vibrating eardrum to the cochlea in the inner ear. The cochlea is filled with liquid that carries the vibrations to thousands of tiny hair cells sitting on a membrane that stretches the length of the cochlea. The hair cells on the membrane fire off tiny electrical signals. These electrical signals travel up the cochlea nerves of the auditory pathway to the brain. All this happens in a fraction of a second.
