Question

Choose correct option
What will happen if ultrasound waves hit our eardrum?
a) vibrations produced are large enough to damage our eardrum. Hence, we cannot hear the sound.
b) Vibrations occur in the eardrum, but we will not be able to recognize the sound.
c) Vibrations will not occur in the eardrum.

Answer 1

I guess option a

Explanation:

Normally vibration will not occur after our eardrum spoild. if we use to hear in high pitch, then surely it damage our eardrum and we can't hear...

Answer 2

If ultrasound waves hit our eardrums ,then vibrations will occur in the eardrum but we will not able to recognise the sound.

• The audible range of sound waves has a specific range of sound frequency.

• And,the sound waves which have less or greater frequency than the audible sound range,are non audible by our ears.

• Similarly,the ultrasound waves have way more higher frequency than our audible sound range and that's why our ears are not able to recognise those ultrasound waves.
