What makes the eardrum vibrate?

Physics
1 answer:
LUCKY_DIMON [66]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The sound waves are gathered by the outer ear and sent down the ear canal to the eardrum. The sound waves cause the eardrum to vibrate, which sets the three tiny bones in the middle ear into motion. The motion of the three bones causes the fluid in the inner ear, or cochlea, to move.

~+lil more info+~

The sound waves go through the ear canal into the middle ear, which includes the eardrum (a thin layer of tissue) and three tiny bones called ossicles. The sound causes the eardrum to vibrate. The ossicles amplify these vibrations and carry them to the inner ear.

A simple harmonic oscillator completes 1550 cycles in 30 min. (a) Calculate the period. s (b) Calculate the frequency of the mot
nordsb [41]

Answer:

(a) 1.16 s

(b)0.861 Hz

Explanation:

(a) Period : The period of a simple harmonic motion is the time in seconds, required for a object undergoing oscillation to complete one cycle.

From the question,

If 1550 cycles is completed in (30×60) seconds,

1 cycle is completed in x seconds

x = 30×60/1550

x = 1.16 s

Hence the period is 1.16 seconds.

(b) Frequency : This can be defined as the number of cycles that is completed in one seconds, by an oscillating body. The S.I unit of frequency is Hertz (Hz).

Mathematically, Frequency is given as

F = 1/T ........................... Equation 1

Where F = frequency, T = period.

Given: T = 1.16 s.

Substitute into equation 1

F = 1/1.16

F = 0.862 Hz

Hence thee frequency = 0.862 Hz

13. Describe the molecules of a solid in terms of kinetic energy.
Y_Kistochka [10]
The kinetic molecular theory of matter states that: ... Molecules in the solid phase have the least amount of energy, while gas particles have the greatest amount of energy. The temperature of a substance is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles.
