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 <i><u>feel</u></i> sound waves moving past your ear? ...(or <i><u>can</u></i> 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?
