How is sound produced and how is it transmitted and heard by us?


Sound is produced by vibrating any object by any means.

In short vibrating object produces sound.


These vibrations travel through their medium and finally reached to the ear.


These vibrations enter in the ear and travels down a canal at the end of thin membrane called eardrum.


The eardrum performs an important function.


Sound vibrations make the eardrum vibrate.


The eardrum sends vibrations to the inner ear.


From there, the signal goes to the brain.


That’s how, we hear sound.
