<DIV>Hi,</DIV>
<DIV>It is like the difference of having a elephant stand on your arm or a
mosquito. One you can really feel. <g></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3>Yes - the amplitude of sound waves is very small compared to
when you feel wind. You feel wind moving on the scale of air molecules
moving inches and feet. I don't know what the amplitude of frequencies
are, but you can get an idea by looking at the soundboard of a piano - it is
moving a similar amplitude as the air - so small you can't really see
it.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV>"why can't you <EM><U>feel</U></EM> sound waves moving past your
ear? ...(or <EM><U>can</U></EM> you feel them if the sound is loud
enough?"</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3>Yes, you can - if the sound wave is high enough amplitude
AND low enough frequency (long sound wave). Ever sit in your car at a
stoplight next to a "gangsta-rapping, mega-watt, full-volume"-equipped car? Or
perhaps you are in the habit of listening to Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg at full
volume from you 8,000 Watt six-15-inch subwoofers stereo? Anyway, you can feel
the pressure (sound) waves on your body. Sit in one of those cars and you
can even watch your hair move (but watch out for flying glass!)!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3>But most sound waves cause very tiny movements of air
molecules and you just can't feel them on your skin - that is why your eardrum
is SOOOOOO sensitive - so that IT CAN "feel" the air movements.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3>That make sense? Hope this helps. Oh, and, I hope I have
made correct factual statements...... ;-)</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Greetings,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> Soundwaves
<EM><U>Do</U></EM> move air then, but on a much smaller level, Is that
right?</DIV>
