1. What is the primary difference between conductive hearing loss and sensorineural hearing loss?
2. Given a vibration period T of 0.2 seconds and a maximum displacement of 1.20 mm, what is the peak acceleration of the vibration?
3. In acoustics, what does the reverberation time T60 represent?
Hearing Loss — types?
Conductive, presbycusis, sensorineural
Vibration — max displacement?
1.20 mm
Wave pressure — formula?
P = A sin(ωt - kx)
Sound Pressure Level — definition?
Microscale measurement of sound pressure relative to reference.
Reverberation Time (T₆₀) — meaning?
Time SPL decays by 60 dB in a room.
Frequency Weightings — purpose?
A-weighting mimics human hearing sensitivity.
