Question

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

Open in App
Solution

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 till it reaches the ear.
