Primarygun Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 Is frequency the sound wave produced that vibrate our ear dump through our mouth directly the same as that of the one spoken?
YT2095 Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 your question isn`t very clear at all are you asking do we hear our own voices the same way we hear others? the answer would be Yes, but with resonant modifications made through our Sinus cavities etc...
Primarygun Posted April 25, 2005 Author Posted April 25, 2005 The first one: the sound wave produced and vibrate our ear dump immediately after we speak. The second one: the sound wave that passes out through our mouth into air. I cannot write it clearly as I don't know the terms fully.
YT2095 Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 sound travels faster in a solid than in air, but since the distance is so short it seems to occur at the same time, we hear our own voice in both of those ways that you mentioned, direct vibration of the vocal cords creating a "Frequency" but since most of our speach requires resonant characteristics to sound as we do, these will directly vibrate the ear drum (not dump), a nano second later we hear our voice as air waves too. does that help?
Spyman Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 Do You have a sound recorder ? Use one to record Your own voice together with a friends voice. Then listen to it, You will hear the difference in Your voice. (Your friend will hear the difference in his/her voice.) Both will hear the others voice as the same. (If the recorder is not to "junky".)
YT2095 Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 also the reason that it`s easier to hear yourself Hum a tune than you can hear yourself whistle a tune in a noisey environment
Primarygun Posted April 26, 2005 Author Posted April 26, 2005 Yes, YT, you were able to understand my vague question fully. You answered well , thank you
