How we hear
... How we hear Sounds are invisible vibrations that travel through the air. When someone speaks, tree leaves rustle, a telephone rings or anything else creates a 'sound', a vibration or a sound wave is sent through the air in all directions. Almost all sound waves are unique. Some sound waves might be ...

Spatial Hearing
... The sound reaching the ear farthest from the source is less intense due to head shadowing mainly, and also to dissipation of intensity with distance according to inverse-square law (only useful for sounds close to head). Low-frequency sounds diffract around the head, highfrequency sounds don't, and ...

... How we hear! 1. When a sound is made outside the outer ear, the sound waves, or vibrations, travel down the external auditory canal and strike the eardrum (tympanic membrane). 2. The eardrum vibrates. 3. The vibrations are then passed to three tiny bones in the middle ear called the ossicles. 4. Th ...
