Physics
1 answer:
mr Goodwill [35]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Particles of a solid are closely packed, and  when a solid is hit to produce a sound the kinetic energy present in the solid will cause the particles to vibrate vigorously in the intermolecular spaces in the solid, whereas the paticles of liquids and gases are rather further apart therefore having large intermolecular spaces between particles.

Ahat [919]
The relationship of the speed of sound, its frequency, and wavelength is the same as for all waves: vw = fλ, where vw is the speed of sound, f is its frequency, and λ is its wavelength. ... The frequency is the same as that of the source and is the number of waves that pass a point per unit time.

In which part of the ear is the sound wave converted into an electrical impulse?
user100 [1]
The Cochlea is filled with a fluid that moves in response to the vibrations from the oval window. As the fluid moves, 25,000 nerve endings are set into motion. These nerve endings transform the vibrations into electrical impulses that then travel along the eighth cranial nerve (auditory nerve) to the brain.
