The vibration of air molecules in the atmosphere that can be sensed by the ear A sound wave is produced by a force that vibrates the surrounding air molecules, such as a stick striking a wooden surface or a guitar string being plucked As the air molecules are set in motion, they radiate outwards, colliding into other air molecules like a chain of falling dominoes, until they strike the ear drum Each type of disturbance in the atmosphere produces a distinct pattern of vibrations These patterns of vibrating air molecules give a sound its unique loudness, pitch, and timbre

the subjective sensation of hearing something; "he strained to hear the faint sounds"
Mechanical disturbance that propagates as a longitudinal wave through a solid, liquid, or gas. A sound wave is generated by a vibrating object. The vibrations cause alternating compressions (regions of crowding) and rarefactions (regions of scarcity) in the particles of the medium. The particles move back and forth in the direction of propagation of the wave. The speed of sound through a medium depends on the medium's elasticity, density, and temperature. In dry air at 32 °F (0 °C), the speed of sound is 1,086 feet (331 metres) per second. The frequency of a sound wave, perceived as pitch, is the number of compressions (or rarefactions) that pass a fixed point per unit time. The frequencies audible to the human ear range from approximately 20 hertz to 20 kilohertz. Intensity is the average flow of energy per unit time through a given area of the medium and is related to loudness.

A term used in evaluating arguments An argument is sound if and only if both of the following are true: It is valid All its premises are true Subjective -- A claim or judgment is subjective if its truth depends on whether or not it conforms to the tastes, attitudes, or beliefs of the person making the claim In other words, a claim or judgment is subjective if its truth-conditions make essential reference to the individual making the claim -- to her desires, beliefs, tastes, etc Thus the claim "Anchovies taste yummy" is subjective, because for the purposes of assigning a truth-value to it, we must take the claim to be elliptical for "Anchovies taste yummy to me "
