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

The vibrating object produces compression and rarefraction pulses,one after the other in the medium .These pulses travel one behind the other as the sound waves. when this soundwaves reaches our ear,it forces tympanic membrane(eardrum)to vibrate and thus causing the sensation of hearing.

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.

In this way, vibrations produced by an object are transferred from one particle to another till it reaches the ear..then our pinna receives it and send to auditary nerve and then it reach to cochlea then it produces electrical impulses and auditary nerve take it to the brain..then we hear the sound..thumbs up plzzz,experts..

What is longitudinal wave?

the vibrating object produces a series of compressions , one after the other in the medium. These pulses travel one behind the other as thesound waves move forward. When this sound wave reaches our ear, it forces the tympanic membrane to vibrate and thus causes the sensation of hearing.

The outer ear is called 'pinna'.It collects the sound from the surroundings. The collected sound passes through the 'auditory canal'.At the end of the auditory canal there is a thin membrane called 'ear drum' or 'tympanic membrane '.When the compression f the medium reaches the ear drum the membrane increases and ces the eardrum inward.Similarly, the eardrum moves outwards when a rarefaction reaches it.In this way the eardrum vibrates.The vibrations are amplified several times by three bones (the hammer,the anvil and stirrup)in the middle ear.The middle ear transmits the amplified pressure variations received from the sound wave to the inner ear.In the inner ear, the pressure variations are turned into electricalsignals by the 'cochlea'.These electrical signals are sent to the brain via the auditory nerve, and the brain interprets them as sound. In this way ear dream rates .The brati
