Question

geneva says that the only thing that is needed for people to hear the sounds around us is a vibrating object. do you agree with her? explain your answer.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

To hear sounds, a vibrating object (source) is necessary to produce sound waves, but also a medium (like air, water, or solids) to transmit the waves, and a functional auditory system (ears, nerves, brain) to detect and process them. Geneva's statement is incomplete as it ignores the medium and the auditory system. So, we don't fully agree.

Answer:

I do not agree with Geneva. A vibrating object is needed to produce sound waves, but for people to hear, a medium (e.g., air, water) to transmit the sound waves and a functional auditory system (ears, auditory nerves, brain) to detect and process the waves are also required. So, a vibrating object alone is not sufficient for hearing.
