Noise induced hearing loss, what do we know about it? How do we hear? First, the sound vibrates the eardrum and the eardrum in turn vibrates the little bones we call the hammer, anvil and the stirrup.

Communication in the workplace There have been several times at work where communication has been an issue.

Name : Muhammad Muzammil Class : PE25 Individual Research on Speakers Sound can be generated with the aid of a speaker. A low cost speaker could produce sound as an output in a circuit. A driver circuit is helpful in increasing its current to achieve the volume desired. One of the ways to generate an audio is using a hardware pulse-width modulation (PWM) output. It is a technique to encode a message into a pulsating signal. The codes can be encoded for transmitting messages, controlling the power
