Catching vibrations: How do we hear?
Scientists investigate.
Whisper to a family member. How far away can you still hear the whisper?
Talk in a regular voice. How far away can you move and still hear the person?
Talk about: How far do you think you can be and still hear a shout? (or loud voice). Try it out. Were you surprised?
