When sound waves travel through the compressions and rarefactions of the air molecules, the pinnain our outer ear picks up all of these and sends them through our ear tube. The ear drum, a stretched membrane which separates our outer ear and middle ear, starts vibrating due to the air molecules. These vibrations then strike the delicate, interlocked bones- Anvil, Stirrup, Hammer; starts vibrating. These are the smallest bones in the body. This then sends the vibrations through the organ of hearing or the cochlea. The cochlea then sends this to the brain through the auditory nerve. Above the cochlea is the organ of balance, which has a fluid in it. It is due to this fluid that we become dizzy when rotate at a high speed.
Sound wave's transmit energy and not matter because sound travels from particle to particle transferring only energy. That is why when sound travels only the energy travels and the particles just collide with each other but stay in their positions.
It is different because sound vibrates and light reflects
Sound is made out of waves and Light is made out of things called wave-particles and are kind of like waves, but not always. But if you mean Sound energy and Light energy I don't really know wat you mean with Sound energy
The loudness of a sound is the same thing as the overall amplitude of a sound. When measuring sound, in general, you have pitch (frequency) and tone (amplitude, the measure of loudness). So, if you increase the amplitude of a sound wave pattern, you increase the overall intensity of the sound (the energy), and that can be measured on the logarithmic scale of decibels, since an unconstrained, undirected sound wave carries its energy outward in all directions, in an increasing volume of air (or other medium).
The total energy in a specific sound can be measured but that is not the normal way of reporting sound energy.Sound energy is typically characterized as power (energy per unit time) per unit area. The standard units (SI) of sound intensity are W/m2 (watts per square meter).When sound is measured by a sound meter, the result is often reported as a "Sound intensity level" that is expressed in decibels and compared to a defined standard of one picowatt per square meter.There are other measures, such as "sones" which are meant to characterize perceived loudness, but that it not a standard (SI) measure.In standard units then, total energy would be joules, power would be watts, intensity would be watts per square meter.
Humans primarily use chemical energy stored in food for their daily activities. This energy is extracted through the process of respiration, which converts the chemical energy from food into usable energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). Additionally, humans also use electrical energy to power devices and equipment.
Movement of a surface. In other words kinetic energy gives rise to sound energy.
Yes, sound energy can be transformed into other types of energy. For example, when sound waves hit a microphone, they are converted into electrical energy. Additionally, sound energy can also be converted into mechanical energy, such as when speakers vibrate to produce sound.
When sound dies away, the sound energy is gradually transformed into other forms of energy, such as heat energy due to friction between molecules in the medium through which the sound waves passed. Eventually, the sound energy dissipates and is no longer detectable as sound.
Sound energy is renewable because it is converted from other renewable resources.
Yes, sound energy is a form of energy produced by vibrations that travel through the air or other mediums. Sound energy can be detected and interpreted by our ears and is an important aspect of communication and the natural world.
Heat and electricity at the very least.
In a phone, mechanical energy from the vibration of the phone's speaker diaphragm is converted into sound energy by causing the surrounding air particles to vibrate. This vibration creates sound waves that propagate through the air and reach our ears as audible sound.
Acoustic energy is a form of mechanical energy that is transmitted through a medium, such as air or water, in the form of sound waves. It is produced by vibrating sources and can travel long distances by propagating through the medium.
Sounds are waves and waves have energy.
Sound requires a medium, that is : sound is energy added to some mass whereas radiant energy is just energy.
