True or false: When your ear detects sound, there is an actual collision of particles from the sound wave that hit your ear drum

Answer:

True...

Explanation:

When these high amplitude vibrations impinge upon the eardrum, they produce a very forceful displacement of the eardrum from its rest position. The ear's ability to do this allows us to perceive the pitch of sounds by detection of the wave's frequencies, the loudness of sound by detection of the wave's ...

When the sound waves hit your eardrum, they cause it to vibrate—the same way that a real drum vibrates when you hit it with a drumstick. The vibrations in your eardrum are then transferred via three tiny bones inside your ear into a fluid-filled chamber called the cochlea (pronounced KOK-lee-uh).

Answer:

True: For a sound wave to propagate, air particles must be displaced in the direction of propagation - it is the displacement of these particles that causes the eardrum to vibrate and recognize the sound.

What two models are used to describe how light behaves
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Light is one of nature's ways of moving energy from one place to another.

Explanation:

It has no substance, or mass. How does light travel? Light behaves like a traveling wave, something like waves in a string or on the surface of water.

2. Human Impact on the Environment
Kitty [74]
Burning fossil fuels emits a number of air pollutants that are harmful to both the environment and public health. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions, primarily the result of burning coal, contribute to acid rain and the formation of harmful particulate matter.

A graph shows how the temperature of a substance changes as energy is added steadily over time.
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

A flat, horizontal line  

Explanation:

A flat, horizontal line indicates a phase change.

The temperature does not increase because the added heat goes into converting one phase into another.

A is wrong. A downward-sloping line indicates that the temperature is decreasing with time.

C is wrong. An upward-sloping line indicates that the temperature is increasing with time.
