The, English name of .
sound 1 (sound)1.
A type of wave motion that originates as the vibration of a medium (such as a person's vocal cords or a guitar string) and travels through gases, liquids, and elastic solids as variations of pressure and density. The loudness of a sound depends on the amplitude of the sound wave. The pitch depends on its frequency.2.
The sensation produced in the organs of hearing by waves of this type. See Note at .Did You Know?
The form of energy called sound is produced when matter moves or vibrates. The vibrations are transferred to another medium, usually the air, and travel through it as sound waves. You hear a sound when its vibrations reach your eardrum, causing it to vibrate. The pitch of a sound is directly related to the frequency of the vibrations of its waves. People with excellent hearing can hear very low sounds, vibrating about 20 times per second, all the way up to high pitches with frequencies of 20,000 vibrations per second. Other animals can hear sounds at higher vibrations. Bats, for instance, can hear sounds with vibrations as high as 100,000 times a second. The loudness, or intensity, of sound is measured in decibels. For each increase of 10 decibels, the sound wave has 10 times as much energy. For example, a sound of 20 decibels is twice as loud as one of 10 decibels, but has 10 times the energy. The softest sound humans can hear, at the very threshold of hearing, has a loudness of 0 decibels. A moderate conversation has a loudness of about 60 decibels, and thunder at very close range has a loudness of about 140 decibels. Sound with intensity greater than 85 decibels can cause ear damage, and sound with intensity above 120 decibels causes pain.sound 21.

The first sound in the morning was her voice as she went about the house singing like a lark, and the last sound at night was the same cheery sound, for the girls never grew too old for that familiar lullaby. By the door of her son's room the mother knelt upon the floor and listened for some sound from within.When she heard the scraping of a chair and the sound of a pen scratching upon paper, she again turned and went back along the hallway to her own room.In the hallway there was the sound of footsteps and George Willard came in at the door. NOTES: [1] The Bohemian name Antonia is strongly accented on the first syllable, like the English name Anthony, and the `i' is, of course, given the sound of long `e'. There was no sound abroad except the hooting of an old owl in the top of a water-oak, and the everlasting voice of the sea, that was not uplifted at that soft hour. It sounds like the wildest dream of a professional sleep- and yet, when I stop to think, it isn't much worse than some of the things we've gone through with, Ned. Some yogis have taught that the three sounds should be made from different parts of the body with the lower chakras producing the "a" sound, the heart and throat chakras producing the "u" sound and the "ma" sound coming from the upper chakras in the head.The sound of a marble dropping onto a marble countertop or ceramic floorIf there's a bug or another object nearby, the sound bounces off the object and comes back to the bat.Note the sound that you hear now that the soda bottle is empty: Does it have a higher pitch, or a lower pitch than when the bottle was filled with newspaper?This provocative ambiguity becomes particularly evident as one compares institutional presentations of sound art since its coming to prominence in the late 1990s.
