The auditory canal is about 2.5 cm long, and since it is much like an open-ended organ pipe, resonance can arise from the production of standing waves in the auditory canal [19]. The velocity of sound in air is vair=331mThe auditory canal is about 2.5 cm long, and sinces. What is the fundamental frequency of the ear?

The fundamental frequency of the ear is 6620 Hz.

Explanation:

Given-

Auditory Canal acts as an open-ended organ pipe

Length of the Auditory canal, l = 2.5 cm = 0.025 m

Velocity of sound, v = 331 m/s

Frequency, n = ?

We know,

For open organ pipe, frequency, n = v/2 l

So, n = 331 / 2 X 0.025

n = 6620 Hz

Therefore, the fundamental frequency of the ear is 6620 Hz.

igneous rocks also form where plates converge. the subducting plate melts as it sinks into the crust of the earth, and the melt rises into the overriding plate forming volcanoes. metamorphic rocks are formed mainly in the lithosphere, wherever there is high pressure and high temperature. -woods
